Harris

Harris forms the mountainous southern part of the island it shares with Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. Its rocky eastern shore contrasts with the sandy beaches and fertile machair of the west. At Rodel in the south stands St Clement's Church, associated with the MacLeods of Harris and Dunvegan. Inside is the finely carved tomb prepared in 1528 for Alexander MacLeod, whose memorial depicts ships and hunting as well as religious scenes.
