SGARABHAIGH .VID. LEAN BHUR ASHLIG. (Translation: Cormorant Island Follow your dreams) |
| Descrizione del rovescio | Shield, known as an escutcheon. `Within the shield we have included our historic link to the Stuarts, the Royal House of Scotland, represented by the Chequered Pattern in the top left hand quarter. This pattern is central to the Stuart crest. Next we have included a link to the family from which the island was bought, the MacKenzies, represented by the Stags Head in the top right hand corner of the same shield. Third is the link to Friends of Sgarabhaigh`s driving force and sponsor Dave Hill whose family name is represented by the Castle in the bottom right hand corner of the shield, again a central element to their family Coat Of Arms. Finally, to recognize the very special Celtic linkage that Scotland has with Ireland, a link which has been reflected in British coinage over centuries, we have retained the Harp in the bottom left corner of the shield. This element is from the British Royal Crest.` |
