Unsavoury History

Unsavoury History
A moss covered bench on the seaward side of Tumpan Church,

Trumpan Church, Isle of Skye, which is probably from 1330s and it lasted until 1578 when the doors were barred and the thatched roof set on fire with a congregation of MacLeods at worship inside, this atrocity by the Macdonald clan was retribution for an attack on clan members on the isle of Eigg

The history and reason for this and the associated clans in these bloody massacres can be read here sobt.co.uk/trumpan-church

Better large in my opinion. ,,,,,, HBM and a nice week!
