==Larger islands== |
|||
This is a list of Scottish islands that either have an area greater than 40 hectares (approximately 100 acres) and/or are inhabited. The main groups, from Haswell-Smith (2004), in many cases provide a more useful guide to location than local authority areas. These groups are: [[Firth of Clyde]], [[Islay]], [[Firth of Lorn]], [[Isle of Mull|Mull]], [[Small Isles]], [[Skye]], [[Lewis and Harris]], [[Uist]]s and [[Barra]], [[St Kilda, Scotland|St Kilda]], [[Orkney]], [[Shetland]] and [[Firth of Forth]]. In a few cases where the island is part of either a recognisable smaller group or an archipelago, or is located away from the main groups, an archipelago, local authority or other descriptive name is used instead. "F" designates a freshwater island. |
|||
Scotland's islands include thirteen [[Munro]]s (mountains with a height over 3,000 feet or 914.4 metres), twelve of them found on Skye, and a total of 227 [[Marilyn (hill)|Marilyns]] (hills with a [[topographic prominence|relative height]] of at least 150 metres, regardless of [[elevation|absolute height]]).<ref name="Munros">{{Cite book| author=D.A.

==Castle islands== |
|||
[[Image:Castle Stalker Scotland.jpg|right|thumb|Castle Stalker, as seen in ''[[Monty Python and the Holy Grail]]'']] |
|||
There are several small Scottish islands that are dominated by a castle or other fortification. The castle is often better known than the island, and the islands themselves are often tidal or bridged. Due to their picturesque nature some of them are well-known from postcards and films. Examples include: |
|||
* [[Bass Rock]] |
|||
* [[Broch of West Burrafirth]] |
|||
* [[Castle Island, Scotland|Castle Island]] |
|||
* [[Calvay]] |
|||
* [[Castle Stalker]] |
|||
* [[Castle Tioram]] |
|||
* [[Eilean Aigas]] (F) |
|||
* [[Eilean Dearg, Loch Riddon]] |
|||
* [[Eilean Donan]] |
|||
* [[Inchtalla]] (F) |
|||
* [[Inveruglas Isle]] (F) |
|||
* [[Kilchurn Castle]] (F) |
|||
* [[Kisimul Castle]] |
|||
* [[Lochindorb|Lochindorb Castle]] (F) |
|||
* [[Loch Leven Castle]] (F) |
|||
* [[Mousa]] |
|||
* [[Threave Castle]] (F) |
|||
* [[Wyre, Orkney|Wyre]] |
|||
Many of the [[Islands of the Forth]] and southern [[Orkney]]s have fortifications from the two world wars. [[Rosyth Castle]] stands on a former island. |
|||
==Holy islands== |

|||
[[Image:Oransay Priory.JPG|right|thumb|200px|Oronsay Priory]] |
|||
A huge number of the islands of Scotland have some kind of [[culdee]]/church connection, and/or are dominated by a church. The more notable include: |
|||
* [[Davaar Island]] |
|||
* [[Egilsay]] |
|||
* [[Eynhallow]] |
|||
* [[Holy Isle, Firth of Clyde|Holy Isle]] |
|||
* [[Inchcolm]] |
|||
* [[Inch Kenneth]] |
|||
* [[Inchmahome]] (F) |
|||
* [[Iona]] |
|||
* [[Isle Maree]] |
|||
* [[North Rona]] |
|||
* [[Oronsay, Inner Hebrides|Oronsay]] |
|||
* [[Papa Stronsay]] (current [[Transalpine Redemptorist]] monastery. Islands called "Papa" or "Pabbay" tend to be former saints' islands) |
|||
* [[St Ninian's Isle]] |
|||
* [[St Serf's Inch]] (F) |
|||
* [[Tiree]] ("land of Iona") |
|||
[[Brother Isle]]'s name is not ecclesiastical in origin as is sometimes stated. |

The [[freshwater]] islands in [[Scotland]] include those within freshwater [[loch]]s and rivers – including tidal areas, so the islands may not always be surrounded by freshwater. It has been estimated that there are at least 31,460 freshwater lochs in Scotland and that 1.9% of the land surface is covered by fresh waters. The distribution has a north west to south east gradient with the highest concentrations occurring in the islands of the [[Outer Hebrides]].<ref name =SNH>[http://www.snh.org.uk/publications/on-line/advisorynotes/4/4.htm "Botanical survey of Scottish freshwater lochs"] SNH Information and Advisory Note Number 4.

Various names are used repeatedly. "Inch" or ''Innis'' is a Scots word that can mean "island" (although it is also used for ''[[Wiktionary:terra firma|terra firma]]'' surrounded by marsh). Similarly, ''Eilean'' is the [[Scottish Gaelic language|Gaelic]] for "island". "-holm" is a common suffix for offshore islands in the north of Scotland and is derived from the [[Old Norse]] ''holmr'', meaning "a small and rounded islet".<ref>Mac an Tàilleir (2003) various pages.</ref><ref>For example, Haswell-Smith (2004) pp. 96, 104, 375.</ref><ref>Fellows-Jensen, Gillian [http://www.ramsdale.org/dalr.htm "On dalr and holmr in the place-names of Britain"] Ramsdale.org. Retrieved 29 April 2010.</ref> This list excludes artificial [[crannóg]]s and the numerous small freshwater islands with no recorded name.{{#tag:ref| Crannógs are excluded as they are both artificial and very numerous. There are at least 600 of these small prehistoric structures in Scotland.<ref>[http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/history/articles/crannogs/ "Crannogs"] BBC. Retrieved 23 January 2010.</ref>|group="Note"}}{{#tag:ref|There is a significant difference between the Ordnance Survey (OS) treatment of freshwater and offshore islands. See for example Loch Snigiscleit at {{gbmapping|NF802254}}. If the islands here were offshore it is virtually certain that there would be three substantial named islands and probably half a dozen named smaller ones. There are several examples – Loch Druidibeag has two named islands and about a dozen un-named. It is not clear whether this because the OS only chose to list a few larger ones and those identified by [[RCAHMS]], or if for some reason local people did not give names to smaller islands in lochs. The latter is unlikely although these islands offer much less of threat to fishermen and thus there is less of an imperative to be aware of them. |group="Note"}} |

There are relatively few genuine islands in the lochs of the [[Inner Hebrides]], many of those that do exist being artificial crannógs. By contrast there are innumerable small islands in the estimated 7,500 lochs of the [[Eilean Siar]],<ref name=SNH/> only a small proportion of which are named by the [[Ordnance Survey]]. |
|||
The [[Orkney]] and [[Shetland]] archipelagos to the north are similarly lacking in freshwater islands. [[Law Ting Holm]] is the former location of the national þing, or Norse parliament of Shetland.<ref name=thing>[http://shetlopedia.com/Thing "Thing"] Shetlopedia. Retrieved 3 August 2010.</ref> |
