The beautiful 2.57m high Kilchoman Cross, carved in the 1300s or 1400s and still crisp despite the efforts of the lichen in this north western corner of the Isle of Islay. @UndisScot info & image turned into a Gif.

My documentary about the loss of two troopships off Islay in 1918 is on BBC ALBA again tonight (Tues) at 9.00pm. Better still, read my Saltire Society award-winning book about the tragedy, 'The Drowned and the Saved: How War Came to the Hebrides'!
