ST CLEMENT'S CHURCH

Built in the early 16th century, this noble medieval church is the work of Alasdair Crotach MacLeod of Harris & Dunvegan, eighth chief of the MacLeod clan. It is one of the most ambitious buildings in the Outer Hebrides, and its form is attributable to the people's former ties with Ireland. He was buried here when he died in 1547 and his tomb is of great beauty. Some of his descendants lie there with him and the stelae and sculptures are impressive. History lovers will be conquered.
