North from Crògearraidh Mòr This picture shows much of the square, moorland sloping up to the sharp summit of Crògearraidh Mòr (180m). Beyond are the beaches and lagoons of the north coast. North Uist is an island, barely above the water and land and water are very much mixed up.

Loch Aonghais The stony islet in Loch Aonghais is marked on the map as Dùn Aonais, which I suspect is a misprint for Dùn Aonghais, 'the fort of Angus'. The distinctively shaped hill is Crògearraidh Mòr, in the next square.
