Eynhallow Church (HS)

Eynhallow Island, Nr Rousay

This 12th century church was only discovered in 1851 after the roofs of some houses were stripped off following an outbreak of fever. Eynhallow, or Holy Isle in Old Norse, suggests that there may have been an earlier Celtic monastery on this site.
