A Chealla

“An a sgaoil a’ Chealla?” A’ Chealla b’e seo againne eaglais Bhaile na Cille ann an Uig. Bha e aig na seann daoine mar a th’agam an seo shuas. “A’ Chealla” agus “An a sgaoil a’ Chealla”. Ach cha robh e againne ach mar ainm do’m biodh sinn a’ toirt an aire, chluinneadh sinn e an dràsda ’s a rithist. Nuair a bha Calum MacLeòid am ministeir (Calum MacLeòid a chaochail ann am Both-chuidir agus a bha ’na Cheann-suidhe air a’ Chomunn Ghàidhealach airson greis), nuair a bha e dol troimh an fhòghlum an Dunéideann, thuit a mach bhuaithe uaireigin “A Chealla” agus mar sin. Thug an t-Ollamh Mac Fhionghuin an aire do an seo anns an spot agus chòrd an rud a bh’ann ris anabarrach math.

eaglais

This is the word I have always heard for a church but it may be interesting to note that there are three farms in this district called Achnahannet. Not very long ago looking through the dictionary I came on the word ‘annaid’ meaning a church, which may suggest that that word was used in the district at one time.
