St Moluag's Cathedral, Lismore
St. Moluag's Cathedral is located on the Scottish island of Lismore just off the coast of Oban.
==History==
Saint Moluag (Old Irish Mo-Luóc) (d. 592), founded a monastery on the island. It was a major centre of Christianity in Scotland, and the seat of the later medieval bishopric of Argyll or the Isles. To modern eyes it seems an isolated location for such a centre, but in an era when the fastest and most reliable transport was by water, Lismore was ideally situated.〔(History ) from ''Isle of Lismore'' retrieved 24 May 2013〕
The Diocese of Argyll was Scotland's most impoverished diocese, and the fourteenth century Cathedral was very modest in scale.〔(History ) from ''Scottish Episcopal Church Diocese of Argyll and The Isles'' retrieved 24 May 2013〕 Only the choir survives, in greatly altered form, the nave and western tower having been reduced to their foundations. The chief surviving medieval features are three doorways, one blocked, another originally the entrance through the pulpitum, a piscina and the triple-arched sedilia. Several late medieval grave slabs are preserved in the church or adjoining graveyard.〔(Site Record ) from ''Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland'' retrieved 24 May 2013〕
