Yesterday I went as a parent helper on Alasdair's school trip to the Crannog Centre on Loch Tay.
A crannog is a type of ancient loch-dwelling found throughout Scotland and Ireland dating from 5,000 years ago. Many crannogs were built out in the water as defensive homesteads. Whilst at the Crannog Centre the children learnt about the Celts and got to use some of the old wood turning, flour grinding equipment as well as trying to light fires without matches
