Union Jack flag
Well used Union Jack flag brought home by Lachie MacLean, Druimfraoich, when he left the Navy. It was last flown by the roadside on the occasion of Ian and Elizabeth Brown`s (Crossapol) wedding in 1984, when it was still the custom for island residents to fly flags on wedding days. (ON LOAN – to be returned to Lachie`s family on request.)
