Grasdale

(Grasdail)

An abandoned settlement in the northwest of the Oa peninsula, in the S of Islay, Argyll and Bute, Grasdale (Gael: Grasdail) is located on the right bank of the Sruthan Poll nan Gamhna, 4 miles (6.5 km) west northwest of Port Ellen. The remains of a number of houses and byres can be seen around a system of fields, showing evidence of a rig-and-furrow based agriculture. Cnoc Mor Ghrasdail lies to the north.
