26/08/2012 - Parking area at end of public road to Boath (NH 5724 7410). Track heads west to shore of Loch Morie. Canmore have this as a crannog (possible). It's 50m from SE shore with a causeway visible on Bing aerial view leading towards it. Don't know if it is a crannog but it's a pretty nice area to visit.

Artificial Islands in the Highland Area by Rev. F. Odo Blundell from 1913 makes mention of this crannog. Quite interesting reading.
