|Viewed from afar 5.6.12 The remains of the Crannog are easily
seen from the B9064 as a grass covered island 'This large island
site was examined; it supports a large walled enclosure of
unknown date, which is divided into two by a cross wall. The
larger of the two enclosures is completely overgrown by salmon
berry undergrowth and cannot be accessed. The smaller enclosure
is less overgrown but still had a significant amount of
undergrowth when examined. The water around the island was
snorkelled. The edge of the island had a largely artificial
appearance due to the stones from which it is formed. Mostly
they are the common slabs from the area, and there was no
evidence of them having been systematically laid underwater.
However, around the edge of the island, just above the water,
there are places where walling could be recognised and it is
likely that many of the slabs in the water have fallen from this
possible revetment. It was difficult to distinguish in most
places where the stones met the loch bed silts
