The Finlaggan Trust works to support the Centre of the Lordship of the Isles on Islay, preserving the ruins on Eilean Mor and Eilean na Comhairle, preserves the carved stones on Eilean Mor, and maintains an Interpretive centre for visitors.
The Glencoe Heritage trust was founded by Alistair MacDonald, a descendant of the MacDonald's of Glencoe in order that this area of Glencoe, so historically significant in Clan Donald history, remains in local hands. Contributions are still needed to repay the original purchase loan, as well as to maintain their ongoing work.
The GalleyAileach is the first replica of a Hebridean birlinn (or West Highland Galley) ever built. She is owned and supported by the Lord of the Isles Galley Trust, a charitable trust set up to promote knowledge of the maritime history of the Celtic Revival period in Scotland.
The posted history here of the Massacre of Glencoe is one of the best available. Electric Scotland is without doubt one of the very best websites for information on all things Scottish.
This website has a wealth of information on tartans, including the history, weaving, dyeing...almost anything you ever wanted to know about tartan. There is also an extensive article on how to wear the kilt and Highland dress on this site.
Since Clan Donald has so many tartans available, one of the most common questions we get asked by both new members and old is about our tartans. This is one of the best Tartan viewers on the web, in the opinion of your webmaster. By clicking the link above, you will be taken to the Tartan Viewer, where you can select the tartan of your choice to view from each of the tartan mills currently weaving that tartan. We highly recommend that you visit a Scottish Kilt Vendor to view the tartans "in person" before ordering as colors can vary quite a bit from a small photo on the web to the real thing!
