Its name was formerly anglicised as "Ellan-Rorymore".[4] Owned by the Forestry Commission, Eilean Ruairidh Mòr forms part of Slattadale Forest.[5] The islands in Loch Maree are among the least disturbed in Britain and are managed as a national nature reserve.[6] HistoryEilean Ruairidh Mòr was planted with pines in about 1815. There are remains of a subterranean circular structure,[4] similar to a Scandinavian dùn or burgh. The ancestors of the Mackenzies of Gairloch held it as a place of security from the attacks of the Macleods.[7] {{clear left}}Footnotes1. ^Rick Livingstone’s Tables of the Islands of Scotland (pdf) Argyll Yacht Charters.
