Seanchas ÌLE
Seanchas Ìle (Islay's Folklore) is an oral history project where we aim to collect, record and preserve Islay's rich Gaelic heritage and unique dialect.
This publication contains a selection of transcriptions and English translations recorded from local Gaelic speakers including local stories, recollections of how Islay has changed over the years, proverbs, as well as historical information and testimonies of the lives of local people.
