Correction note: In our story “The Big Second Home Tax Stooshie”, we quoted William Gray Muir extensively. The introduction to the article gave the impression that the Lighthouse in Gairloch was a second home owned by Mr Gray Muir. We are happy to clarify that this is not the case. The Lighthouse operates exclusively as commercial self catering tourist accommodation throughout the year and is assessed for business rates rather than council tax. We regret the error and any misunderstanding caused.
