Clèir Eilean Ì
Appearance
The Church of Scotland, the national church of Scotland, divides the country into Presbyteries, which in turn are subdivided into Parishes, each served by a parish church, usually with its own minister. Unions and readjustments may however result in a parish having more than one building, or several parishes sharing a minister (these are known as "linked charges").
What follows is a list of Church of Scotland parishes, congregations and places of worship in the Presbytery of Clèir Eilean Ì, which covers the Highlands and Hebrides.
