Scottish Iron Age Loch Dwelling


Scottish Iron Age Loch Dwelling, Kenmore, Loch Tay, Perthshire, Scotland. Crannogs are an ancient type of loch dwelling found throughout Scotland. People lived in them from as early as 5,000 years ago, up until the 17th century AD. They were built out in the water as defensive homesteads, secure from wild animals and invaders. Many Scottish crannogs were originally timber built round houses supported on stilts driven into the bed of the loch. Scottish Crannog Centre Photographs.
