NN 567 002 No structural remains can be seen on the Dog Isle today. Underwater examination of the island suggested that it is at least partly artificial - consisting of boulders capping an existing natural feature. Most revealing was the discovery of two Quercus timbers at a depth of 1.7m embedded into the island. One of these timbers was recovered as it demonstrated evidence for tool facets. (See NN50SE 5 for possible association with the castle on Inch Talla.)
