Isle Of Iona
Iona is a tiny island in the Inner Hebrides off the Ross of Mull on the western coastline of Scotland. It is mostly recognized for Iona Abbey, though there are other structures on the island. Iona Abbey was a centre of Gaelic monasticism for 3 centuries and is today known for its family member tranquility and natural surroundings. It is a visitor location and also a place for spiritual hideaways. Its modern-day Scottish Gaelic name suggests "Iona of (Saint) Columba" (formerly anglicised "Icolmkill"). The island, apart from the land owned by the Iona Cathedral Trust, was purchased from the Duke of Argyll by Hugh Fraser in 1979 as well as contributed to the National Trust for Scotland. In 2001 Iona's population was 125 and also by the time of the 2011 census this had grown to 177 normal locals.
