Shh! Don’t tell the other Local Authorities that as ABC claims SINA for Seil. Oops, too late.

What about Innis Trynich on Loch Awe? There is at least one house on it, but…
Forgot about Oronsay AND DAVAAR (Shame); didn’t know Erraid and Gometra were inhabited – now off to find out where Danna is and to check if Inchtavannach is in Loch Lomond.
And Inchmurran – or is that outwith Argyll and Bute?
Press piece said single inhabitant of Innis Chonan recently stopped living there. Is this incorrect?

I think that Eilean da Mheinn, Crinan Harbour, is inhabited all year round.

Eilan Loain (known to some as ‘treasure island’), Loch Sween, certainly has a very substantial house – but might not be inhabited all year.

What is an island? In his excellent & comprehensive book “The Scottish Islands” Hamish Haswell-Smith arrived at a definition after much consideration: “An island is a piece of land or group of pieces of land which is entirely surrounded by sea water at Lowest Astronomical Tide and to which there is no permanent means of dry access.” For freshwater lochs knock out the tidal & seawater bits. So, Seil is not an island, nor are Danna or Davaar. Gometra is attached to Ulva, Oronsay to Colonsay etc etc. Is a revision of the list in order?

Gometra has been inhabited for decades. Not only inhabited but well farmed by the Munros.

Old misery before my time – aye that’ll be right.
Lets ne honest here – Geo Freeman provides the list of the 25. Then someone suggests that because Hasmish double-barrelled name defines an island differently form others this ‘definition’ suggests that some islands are actually no longer islands!! This provokes even more suggestions/counter suggestions from the usual suspect eg “it has a bridge”/or “has a substantial house but might not be inhabiited all year”.
Ye gods – talk about the number of angels that can dance on the head of apin!!! Get a life you numpties.
Oh, and have a nice day

What about Campbeltown? Most folk seem to think of it as an island because its so far away from anywhere else!

If Argyll was in France Kintyre would be a textbook example of a ‘presqu’ile’ – but still not an island, even if a canal were to be dug at Tarbert.
