Tha e air a bhith a’ rannsachadh nam muilnean beaga air feadh Leòdhais fad bhliadhnaichean — cò às a thàinig iad, an cruth ’s an suidheachadh, agus an àite ann an eachdraidh an eilein. Tha e air leabhar fhoillseachadh (le Acair) ann an Gàidhlig agus ann am Beurla agus bidh sinn gan reic an ath-oidhch’ aig £15.

He has been researching the Norse Mills in Lewis for many years — their origin, structure and location as well as their significance in the social history of Lewis. Finlay’s book, Muilnean Beaga Leòdhais (published by Acair) — available in either a Gaelic or English version — will be on sale after the talk, priced at £15. The talk will be in Gaelic and non-members are most welcome to attend.
