860:, one of three members of the Panel of Architectural Advisors to the Board, who was tasked with the architectural work at Lochalsh, noticed that all local buildings were made of local stone, in a style he called cottage architecture, and asked MacColl whether stone could be used for the power station, despite its extra cost and the fact that working with stone was a dying art. MacColl readily agreed, and this formed a policy for most of the Board's projects. Wood states that Shearer was also the architect for the Morar station, but Shearer states that it was another of the Panel of Architectural Advisors, 31: 849: 705: 47: 713: 833:. The estimated cost of the two smaller schemes was £0.5 million, compared to £4.1 million for the Sloy development. Although there were no objections to the two smaller schemes, implementation was delayed, because there was vigorous opposition to the Sloy scheme, and a public inquiry was held to consider this. John Cameron KC decided that the objectors had failed to convince him that the scheme was not in the public interest, and the three schemes were authorised on 28 March 1945. 775:
the village of Morar. It was formerly part of the main road from Fort William to Mallaig. The present bridge is close to the railway viaduct, and is built of stone. Prior to 1915, the road bridge was a little further downstream, but was replaced at some point. The newer bridge is the normal upstream limit to which tides flow. The third bridge carries the A830 road, and was constructed in 1997 when the road was upgraded. It bypasses the village altogether.

It soon became clear that MacColl intended to push ahead with the aspirations of the Act at breakneck speeds. He produced a list of 102 potential sites in just three months, and in June 1944, the first constructional scheme was published.

Morar at 0.75 MW thus qualified, and between 2005 and 2007 the station qualified for 6,833 Renewable Obligation Certificates, generating a subsidy for SSE of over £332,000.

A fish ladder was constructed around the dam to ensure that trout and salmon could still reach Loch Morar.

section, known as the Falls of Morar, although the flow down the falls is considerably less than it was before the hydroelectric plant was built. The power station discharges its water back into the river below the main part of the falls, and a fish ladder allows salmon and trout to negotiate the rise to reach Loch Morar.

However, when the tide is out, it flows in a single channel across the sands of Morar Bay, for another 1.5 miles (2.4 km), and this section is labelled River Morar by the Ordnance Survey.

A small dam was constructed, which raised the level of Loch Morar by 3 feet (0.9 m), but because of the location of the falls, the head for the Kaplan turbines is 16 feet (4.9 m). The small change in level represents a significant increase in the volume of water stored, as the loch covers

To mark the start of the smaller projects, pole raising ceremonies were held in May 1946 at Morar and at Nostie Bridge, where the Lochalsh station would be built. The Morar scheme would be built beside the Falls of Morar, and a token electricity pole was raised, which would become part of the
