May 16th Viking graffiti Holy Isle
On the Holy Isle just off Arran there is a cave where St Molaise lived for 20 years, a spartan life indeed. However, within the cave there are scratchings into the rockface, some of which are attributed to the Viking invaders as well as a more modern Celtic Cross. Fascinating to be able to stand at a spot in time where these people also stood. It may be the Norse were pilgrims not warriors.
