4K A Walk Around The Idyllic Isle of Kerrera, Scotland.

On the 14th August 2021 we visited Kerrera, an island in the Scottish Inner Hebrides, close to the town of Oban. It is not a large island being only 4 miles long and a little over a mile wide. The island is known for the ruined Gylen Castle, Perched high on old sea stacks at the south end of Kerrera, built in 1582 by the Clan McDougall. It was also the place where Alexander II of Scotland died in 1249. The artist J. M. W. Turner visited Kerrera in 1831 and made 25 sketches of the castle which are in the Tate Gallery, London. It is an idyllic Hebridean paradise.
