Flannan
Islands
The Flannan
Islands are situated about 33km WNW of Gallan Head in Lewis. In 1900 the
three lighthouse keepers went missing in a mysterious episode and were
never found. The islands are home to many breeding seabirds in summer,
and are also known as the "Seven Hunters". There is a small
chapel dedicated to St Flann below the lighthouse on Eilean Mhor.
