The feature on its upper surface is very unlikely to be a prehistoric cupmark due to its depth in relation to its width.

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.

  • Grimsay to Galway Update
    From Grimsay to Galway 25 Smart Islands in Scotland and Ireland shine a light on their island assets and futures CoDeL Update for December 2019 From Grimsay: Shining a light on island renewal In Grimsay, North Uist, fifty Scottish and Irish islanders gathered in the first week of October 2019, to focus in particular on the contributions of younger islanders in renewing island life and contributing to sustainable island communities. For a whole morning (of Wednesday 2nd October), 11 enterprising young islanders, most in their 20s and 30s, told of the often remarkable personal journeys that brought them to Uist, whether returning to their island home from the mainland or as far afield as Kenya, or being inspired to make Uist their new home. And they introduced all the participants to their businesses in Uist as founders of start-up enterprises or social enterprises like the North Uist Distillery, the Scandinavian Bakery, Uist Forest Retreats and an outdoor nursery, developing community sports, reviving a community charity that almost went under, as a climate change artist, or as a young leader seeking to tackle the shortage of appropriate housing that is preventing more people returning or settling. Page 1 of 6 Throughout the week from September 30th to October 4th hosted by local organisation CoDeL (Community Development Lens) and the Scottish Islands Federation, more than 10 other young islanders led sessions on topics such as culture and identity, crofting, tourism, and developing island skills. They included young crofters and musicians, managers and development officers at social enterprises, arts, tourism and Gaelic development officers, and the founder of the Coral Box, Winner of this year's Entrepreneur of the Year at the Young Women in Tourism Awards.

Year of publication: 2010 Background Tourism in the Outer Hebrides is a significant contributor to the economy of the islands. Much of this is based on the outstanding wildlife, landscape and opportunities for activity in the outdoors that are available throughout the year. The Area Tourism Partnership consisting of Comhairle nan Eilean Siar, HIE, VisitScotland, Scottish Natural Heritage and the Island’s tourism businesses recognise that the contribution that these assets can make to the island’s economy can be increased. This study undertook a review of the nature based assets within the Outer Hebrides and identified those assets that offered the greatest potential to help grow the island’s economy.

  • Notices of Three Churches in North Uist, Benbecula, and Grimsay, Said to Have Been Built in the Fourteenth Century
    VIII.—Notices of Three Churches in North Uist, Benbecula, and Grimsay, said to have been Built in the Fourteenth Century. By F. W. L. THOMAS, Capt. RN., F.S.A. SCOT. With Descriptions and Plans of Primitive Chapels in Rona and Sulasgeir. By T. S. MUIK, ESQ. [Read before the Society, 4th December 1871.] Of the scores of chapels in the Outer Hebrides, whose ruins exist or whose sites are known, very few have any traditionary date of the founda- tion or of the name of the founder ; but there are three which are said, by the historian of the Macdonalds, who wrote in the time of Charles II., to have been built by Amie MacRory, the repudiated wife of the " good" John of Islay, first Lord of the Isles. The notes and measurements made of these churches may interest some members of the Society, particularly if they have not at hand the comprehensive work of Mr T. S. Muir, .on the " Characteristics of Old Church Architecture in Scotland." TEAMPULL NA TRIONAIDE (OB, AS IT is CALLED ON THE SPOT), TEAMPTJLL NA TRINIDAD; i.e., THE CHUECH OF THE (HOLY) TRINITY. The ruin of Trinity Church stands at Carinish,1 the south-west extremity of North Uist, at a short distance from the inn. It is in a very dilapidated condition; for besides that it is roofless, the sides and lintels of the windows and doorway have been destroyed, for the sake of the dressed stone of which they are said to have been formed. The interior is. choked for several feet in height with rubbish and graves, and it is hoped that among the debris some figured and moulded stones may yet be found.
