What remains of Cill Chaitriona, a medieval chapel and burial ground near Balnahard in the north of Colonsay. Either built around 600 to 800 or after 1200 by monks from Iona.

After the panoramic view from the top of the dunes a closer look at Balnahard beach in the north of Colonsay. Taken in April 2012.
Following on from the view north and the view south of Balnahard beach in the north of Islay’s neighbour Colonsay I thought I’ll put the two together in a panoramic picture of the whole beach. Here’s a view from the top of the dunes behind the beach. The Isle of Mull in the distance on the left, the mainland and Jura towards the centre and right.
