What is recorded here

Eilean nan Caorach is shown as a islet on the public map of Argyll and Bute. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Eilean nan Caorach, located in the Firth of Lorne, was historically associated with the Clan MacDougall and may have been used as a defensive or seasonal dwelling site. Its Gaelic name, meaning "Island of the Lambs," suggests it was used for small-scale pastoral activity.
