Inchcruin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inchcruin is an island in Loch Lomond in Scotland.
Its name means "round island" in the Scottish Gaelic language, although it is not round, but a rather jagged shape.
It contains one house, which was inhabited in the past by people who farmed on the island. It is now a holiday retreat.
There is a very narrow channel separating it from Inchmoan.
The famous travel writer, H.V. Morton visited Loch Lomond in the 1930s, and mentions Inchcruin briefly and wrongly as "Inchcruim" '[1]
