The Scottish Crannog Centre
Iron Age-style waterfront property
A crannog is an Iron Age dwelling-cum-fortification that was built as an island on Scottish lochs around 2,500 years ago.
Loch Tay had several, as dives have revealed, and the Scottish Crannog Centre pieced together the evidence to provide a fascinating reconstruction of what once was.
Unfortunately a fire destroyed the Crannog itself in 2021. Rebuilding’s now under-way, and tours of this offered; otherwise the main attraction is a museum of artefacts and Iron Age craft demonstrations.
