Scope and Content Detail of West Highland grave-slab at the chapel of Finlaggan Chapel, 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 is the upper part of a tapered slab, probably dating from the 14th or 15th century. At the top it bears a carved hull of a boat, with a sword below on the left. Both appear to be later reworkings of the original carvings. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
