Sithean Mòr

Mountain / peak

Why this matters

Sithean Mòr is a Gaelic name meaning "Great Fairy Hill," reflecting the folklore tradition of sìth (fairies) associated with such elevated places in the Scottish Highlands. It likely consists of typical upland geology found in the Western Isles, such as Lewisian gneiss or quartzite. Its name and representation on official maps highlight its cultural and topographical significance in the Na h-Eileanan Siar landscape.
