085 | Applies to a small island situate in the Lock of Wasbister. It contains the site of an ancient chapel and was formerly connected with the mainland with stepping stones which are still visible under the surface of the loch. From the fact of deer horns, bones, coins etc. having been found on the site of the old chapel it is thought that a more ancient building existed there prior to the erection of the chapel. Col.
