	Craignure Feature Page on Undiscovered Scotland
		Craignure lies close to Mull's easternmost point, and it is reasonably equidistant from the island's two main destinations for visitors: Tobermory to the north and Iona to the west.
		Craignure's second centre is around the south end of Craignure Bay.
		Craignure's other claim to fame is that it lies at one end of the only significant stretch of twin track road on Mull, running north west to Salen.

	ISLE OF MULL
		The introduction of a car ferry between Oban and Craignure in 1964 to meet the changing needs of both tourist and resident brought Macbraynes buses to Mull for the first time, with a new route from Craignure and Salen to Tobermory, covering the villages at which the now discontinued mail steamer had called.
		The Macbraynes bus operated four times a day to connect with the car ferry at Craignure, and there were additional local journeys between Tobemory, Salen and Gruline at school and shopping times to replace the service previously run by R and A Cowe.
		This was short-lived and by 1980 Bowman had taken over the Tobermory - Craignure route as well as continuing their Craignure - Fionnphort route.

		From 1973 to 1974, Mull was serviced by three different ships: IONA, GLEN SANNOX and, when Craignure duly received its linkspan and the route became truly drive-through, the newly converted CLANSMAN.

	Ships Of Calmac - History of: Craignure
		As Craignure has, for almost forty years, been the terminus of the Mull car ferry, it is a jolt now to be reminded that until 1964 the village did not even boast a pier.
		When the new pier was built for the advent of COLUMBA in 1964, CRAIGNURE was sold to Bruce Watt of Mallaig; and he in turn sold her on to Murdo MacSween of Fort William.
		In January 1973 she was reacquired by CalMac for the Fionnphort-Iona service, but registered — like all the “red boats” in the name of David MacBrayne Ltd. In August 1979 she was sold to Gordon Grant Ltd of Ionas for the transport of livestock to and from the Treshnish Isles.
