    There is a big statue outside Colmcille church. There are crosses and graves all through the graveyard. It is the statue of our Lord. It is a very big statue.
    There is a stone on Inch Island, and it was said that St. Colmcille left the marks of his two knees on it.
    There was a statue of St. Patrick and one of St Colmcille on Inch Island long ago, but they are not there now. There are very old crosses on some of the graves in the graveyard in Inch Island.
