The significance of the Otter here is that the Author of "Ring of Bright Water", Gavin Maxwell, lived not far from here in the lighthouse keepers cottage on Eilean Ban. The 15th century Castle Moil is in the background. Since this photo was taken in 2014 a lightening strike brought down part of the structure on the left. Map location.
