Griminish
A pair of modest churches, each with its residence at right angles, breaks the skyline above undulating stone walls: Church of St. Mary (RC), opened 1884 with 'ceremonies which had been unknown in the island for centuries'; and the Parish Church (originally Free Church), Thomas Binnie of Glasgow, 1886.
