Loch of Clunie — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

George Brown, Bishop of Dunkeld, built a simple L-plan tower house on the artificial island between 1485 and 1514 as a spiritual retreat. He dedicated a chapel inside to St Catherine in 1507 and added a well-designed pier at the south end in 1512-1513. The house burnt down, was restored at the end of the 18th Century, and lost its roof again in 1989, leaving bare stone beside the dry-stone wall and dark water.
