Tangy Loch (4 of 4)
It is believed that this island and its ruins were the &quot;insula et fortalitium de Ellanlochnacanage&quot; which formed the subject of a charter granted by John, Bishop of the Isles, to the Earl and Countess of Argyll in 1576.  The site is indicated as a dwelling-place on the Pont-Gordon Map of the second quarter of the 17th century, when Tangy was held by the MacEachan family, at least one member of whom is said to have resided in a house on the island.  This residence is probably the one referred to by MacIntosh, who mentions the former existence in Tangy Glen of a MacEachan house bearing the date 1670.
