ISLAY / OILEÁN ÍLE
 Tháinig
Colm Cille i dtír in Iona in 563 ach deirtear gur ar dtús
ar Eilean Ìle a leag sé cos ar Albain. Má amharcann
tú ar léarscáil an oileáin seo, is furasta
a thuiscint cén fáth go ndeirtear gurb é Ìle
an choischéim idir Éire agus Alba. Is é Domhnall
Angaidh MacIllinnein stiúrthóir ar Ionad Chaluim Chille
Ìle. Míníonn sé cá háit
go díreach a bhfuil an t-oileán...
Colmcille famously arrived in Iona in 563 but it is believed that
his first step on Scottish soil was on the island of Islay. If you
look at a map of these islands, it is easy to see why Islay was
regarded as a stepping stone between Ireland and Scotland. Domhnall
Angaidh Mc Illenann is the director of Ionad Chaluim Chille Ìle.
He explains exactly where the island is situated.
