== History ==
A prehistoric ring of stones indicates that an ancient settlement has existed near Lamlash since antiquity. The name ''Lamlash'' dates back to the 6th Century hermitage of Saint Molaise a Celtic monk born in Ireland but raised in Scotland, who in c.590 spent some time in a cave on the neighbouring Holy Island. Commonly known as ''MoLaise'' the Gaelic name of Holy Island was, as a result, ''Eilean MoLaise''. This gradually evolved through ''Elmolaise'' and ''Lemolash'' to Lamlash, which is what Holy Island was called until early in the 19th century. After that time the name was more normally attached to the village that grew up facing it.
Lamlash was peripherally involved in the 13th century Battle of Largs. It was the birthplace of artist James Kay.
The village was also the training place for No. 11 (Scottish) Commando during the early years of the Second World War.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=11 (Scottish) Commando )〕
