Cornaig

The Cornaig mill is the only visible mill left on the island. It was built by the fifth Duke of Argyll in 1803, servicing the whole island. Millers lived and worked at Millhouse until 1945. The mill wheel has been restored and still turns.

Cornaigmore School opened its doors in 1876, one of five schools on the island. It was re-built in 1936, with the island’s first flush toilets and electric power. In 1983 it became a six-year secondary, meaning island children no longer had to spend their last two years at school in Oban.
