76838: Bodha an t-Sagairt, North Uist

Located at the east of Lingay, near the shore, this rock is said to have been named after Neil MacKillop struck it with his boat, An Sagart.

Another legend states that it is so called because the dignitaries of the Celtic Church who died north of Eigg, were taken via this route to the island of Boreray, where they were buried.
