A late-medieval cross of the Iona school was removed from Kirkapoll Churchyard, Tiree, to the gardens on Inverara Castle in the late 19th century; its removal to a sheltered position is now under consideration. The unique inscribed cross-base records that it is the cross of Fingon (MacKinnion), abbot (of Iona) in the late 14th century, and of the two of his sons.
