Morar Small village contemporary with the coming of the railway in 1901, taking its name from Scotland's deepest freshwater loch, which divides the rugged district into North and South Morar. Before 1901, there were just a few small crofting townships here, known collectively as Beoraid. Today, inevitably, suburban influences have penetrated, and Morar's frontier-post character of last century has all but disappeared.
