The Scottish Crannog Centre has unveiled plans to transform its museum into a “national treasure”.

The project, which would be spread across 12 acres, will replicate how people lived on Loch Tay between 370BC and 355BC.

The ambitious project would see the Kenmore tourist attraction build multiple crannogs, an Iron Age village and create 35 new jobs at the rural beauty spot.

Dr Marco Gilardi, of the University of the West of Scotland, said: “In the past year, the Scottish Crannog Centre has shown a positive attitude toward change and is making giant steps in its renovation, re-designing itself as a modern immersive experience and living museum.

“The Scottish Crannog Centre staff were a pleasure to work with and the UWS team looks forward to continuing the collaboration and to help them to become a National Treasure and a model for modern living museums.”
