Stunning shell sand beaches fringed with machair, vast expanses of moorland, rugged hills, dramatic cliffs and surrounding seas all contain a rich biodiversity of flora, fauna and marine life. Together with a thriving Gaelic culture, this provides an inspiring island environment to live, study and work in, and a culturally rich place to explore as a visitor. The islands are privileged to be home to several award-winning contemporary Art Centres and Festivals, plus a creative trail of many smaller artist/maker run spaces. This publication aims to guide you to the galleries, shops and websites, where Art and Craft made in the Outer Hebrides can be enjoyed. En-route there are numerous sculptures, landmarks, historical and archaeological sites to visit. The guide documents some (but by no means all) of these contemplative places, which interact with the surrounding landscape, interpreting elements of island history and relationships with the natural environment. The Comhairle’s Heritage and Library Services are comprehensively detailed. Museum nan Eilean at Lews Castle in Stornoway, by special loan from the British Museum, is home to several of the Lewis Chessmen, one of the most significant archaeological finds in the UK. Throughout the islands a network of local historical societies, run by dedicated volunteers, hold a treasure trove of information, including photographs, oral histories, genealogies, croft histories and artefacts specific to their locality.

  • Aspects of the Religious History of Lewis
    ASPECTS OF THE RELIGIOUS HISTORY OF LEWIS Rev. Murdo Macaulay was born in Upper Carloway, Lewis, the eldest child of a family of four boys and two girls. On the day of his birth the famous and saintly Mrs Maclver of Carloway predicted that he was to be a minister of the Gospel. This prediction, of which he had been informed, appeared to have no particular bearing upon his early career. It was not until the great spiritual revival, which began in the district of Carloway a few years before the outbreak of the Second Worid War, that Mr Macaulay came to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. Whatever thoughts he may have entertained previously, it was in a prisoner of war camp in Germany that he publicly made known his decision to respond to his call to the ministry of the Free Church. The Lord's sovereignty in preparing him for the ministry could make interesting reading. It included a full secondary education, a number of years of military training, some years in business where he came to understand the foibles of the public whom he had to serve, a graduation course at Edinburgh University and a divinity Course in Up to the Disruption of 1843 the Free Church College. Mr Macaulay has a studious mind, a retentive memory, and scholastic ability for research. He has a good working knowledge of six languages, yet he is more concerned about stating facts than about This document is scanned for research and appears never to have been clothing them in attractive language.

  • Croft 7 Pictorial.Pub
    The Genealogy of Croft 7 Calbost Malcolm Mackay ‘Calum Òg’ (hence his descendants were known locally as ‘Na h-Ogaich’). He was born in 1801 in Kirivik, Carloway, and he was the first crofting tenant on croft 7 Calbost. Oral tradition informs us that to begin with he came to Gravir to work for a man called ‘Aonghais Ruadh’ when he was only 12 years old. It is thought that ‘Aonghais Ruadh’ (Angus Maclean) resided where croft 35 Gravir is now and that he was a brother of ‘Coinneach Ruadh’ (Kenneth Maclean) who was at Calbost and moved to croft 15 Gravir. It appears they came from Shawbost. It was the custom at the time that young people were engaged as ‘sgallagan’ servants or more correctly slaves for little more than their keep and their training. In some homes they were worked very hard both in agriculture and fishing. The idea was a form of residential school. It appears that ‘Calum Og’ Mackay’s conditions of work were pretty harsh and eventually he decided to run off home. His employer, however, noticed his absence and went after him in order to bring him back. On catching up with him some miles away his employer reasoned with him and in the end they both agreed on improved con- ditions of work. In future Calum was to be granted the concession of being permitted to partake of his own breakfast before feeding the farmyard animals in the early morning. We do not know if Calum stayed in Park until he married about the age of 28 years but he was in Park for the rest of his long life of 93 years.

WATSON, MA.,LL.D. - \^' ^'--fSSSSS^.-sll^^ ENEAS MACKAY 43 MURRAY PLACE, STIRLING 1922 INTROiJUCTION. Dr Alexander Macbain's work on Names of Places deals with the Cehic names of pre-Gaehc " " he calls Pictish with Gaehc origin which ; names, ancl with names of Norse origin which have been transmitted through Gaelic. The area from which he took his materials was chiefly Inverness-shire, Sutherland, and Lewis. His views on the language spoken by the Picts are " given in his paper on Ptolemy's Geography of Scotland" (published separately), in his edition of Skene's "Highlanders of Scotland," and in several papers contained in this volume, particu- " larly that on the Place-Names of Inverness- shire." His position is that the Picts spoke that the Celtic Early British or a dialect of it, and language of early Britain was practically homo- geneous from the English Channel to the very North. He agrees with Kuno Meyer in holding " that no Gael ever set his foot on British soil save from a vessel that had put out from Ire- larid." Further, assuming that the terms Cruthen (which is the Gaelic form of Briton) and Pict are co-extensive and mutually convertible, VI. INTKODUCTION. ' ' ' he includes under Picts ' the whole of the Celtic settlers in Britain prior to the Belgae, thus ignoring the facts that the Picts are not heard of till about 300 %^, and that all old authorities (Gildas, Nennius, Bede, &c.) state that their original seat in Scotland was in the far North.
