Full Description

NB34NW 4 325 480.

'Aerial photography indicates that this loch contains a submerged mound in a bay near its eastern end. Visibility underwater was so restricted that in water only 50cm deep, individual boulders could hardly be distinguished. It was not possible to establish if the mound was artificial.'
T N Dixon and P G Topping 1986.
