Religion in the Outer Hebrides : ウィキペディア英語版 | Religion in the Outer Hebrides The Western Isles are a unique religious area of contemporary Scotland and Britain. The northern islands of Lewis and Harris are dominated by Calvinist 'free churches' and have been described as "the last bastion of Sabbath observance in the UK". They are also home to a unique form of Gaelic psalm singing known as precenting.〔http://www.educationscotland.gov.uk/scotlandssongs/about/songs/psalmsinging/index.asp〕 The southern islands of South Uist and Barra are the last remnant of native pre-Reformation Scottish Catholicism. In fact, Barra was once dubbed "the island the Reformation did not reach". The Western Isles are also home to some of Britain's most important pre-Christian religious sites. The most significant is the Callanish Stones on the isle of Lewis which are a notable megalithic site dating back some 5000 years and older than Stonehenge.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/index/places/propertyresults/propertyoverview.htm?PropID=PL_051&PropName=Calanais%20Standing%20Stones )〕 ==Catholicism in the Western Isles==
