Scope and Content Detail of effigy in chapel at Finlaggan Castle, Islay, Argyll and Bute Loch Finlaggan lies c.1.5km north-west of Ballygrant on Islay. The remains of a castle and associated buildings occupy two small islands at the north-east end of the loch: Eilean Mór, meaning 'great isle'; and Eilean na Comhairle, meaning 'council isle'. On the north-east side of Eilean Mór lies the remains of a late medieval chapel and burial-ground. Within the chapel, a number of medieval grave-slabs still survive in situ. This tapered slab dates from c.1500-60, and bears an effigy of a man in armour with a sword. Below this is a galley without a sail. To the right of the effigy's head is an inscription commemorating 'Donald, son of Patrick, son of Celestinus'. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
