Bha mi ag innse dhuibh mun chloich-neirt ann am B脿rr 脠ibhinn air oighreachd Chaladair. Thathar ag r脿dh gu bheil ochd clachan deug de chuideam innte. Tha sin co-ionann ri ceud is ceithir-deug cileagraman. Tha i ugh-chruthach agus doirbh a thogail.

Tha cunntas againn dhen chloich bho ochd ceud deug is ochdad (1880). Bha tuathanach a鈥� fuireach san sg矛re. 始S e Uilleam Mac an T貌isich an t-ainm a bha air. Bha e seachdad 始s a seachd bliadhna a dh鈥檃ois. Dh鈥檌nns Mac an T貌isich don fhear a sgr矛obh an cunntas 鈥� Uilleam Jolly 鈥� gun robh comas aige a鈥� chlach a thogail nuair a bha e 貌g.

Cha b鈥� e sin a-mh脿in. Thuirt caraid aig Jolly a bha c貌mhla ris gun robh a sheanmhair air a鈥� chlach a thogail. Rinn i sin le bhith a鈥� cur a h-aparain f貌idhpe!

Chaidh cunntas inntinneach a sgr矛obhadh mu cheangal eadar a鈥� chlach agus Uibhist a Tuath. O chionn ceud bliadhna, bha fear 脿s an Eilean Sgitheanach 鈥� D貌mhnall MacIllEathain 鈥� na thuathanach ann am B脿rr 脠ibhinn. Cheannaich D貌mhnall crodh bho dhaoine ann an Uibhist a Tuath. Fhuair e e貌las air Uibhistich.聽

Thug e obair do fheadhainn aca air an tuathanas aige aig 脿m an D脿rna Cogaidh. Ch霉m na h-Uibhistich farpais airson faicinn c貌 bha comasach air a鈥� chlach a thogail. Rinn d矛reach aon duine an gnothach 鈥� fear P脿draig MacIllEathain. Tha na Leathanaich l脿idir, feumaidh!

Ann an d脿 mh矛le 始s a dh脿-dheug (2012), thog fear 脿 Eilginn, Martin Jancsics, a鈥� chlach gu a ghualainn. Tha esan ag r脿dh nach eil i cho trom 始s a tha feadhainn a鈥� cumail a-mach. Tha d矛reach ceud 始s a c貌ig cileagraman de chuideam innte!

Ceithir bliadhna an d猫idh sin, thill e airson bhidio a dh猫anamh dheth fh猫in, agus e a鈥� togail na cloiche. Chithear sin air YouTube. Bhon uair sin, tha grunnan dhaoine air bhidiothan a dh猫anamh, agus iad a鈥� togail na cloiche gu h-脿rd.

Tha rudeigin laghach mu na clachan-neirt seo. Tha iad rin lorg ann an 脿iteachan br猫agha. Tha iad co-cheangailte ri dualchas nan G脿idheal. Agus tha na clachan gu math eachdraidheil, mar a tha an t猫 ann am B脿rr 脠ibhinn.

I was telling you about the lifting stone in Barevan on the Cawdor estate. It鈥檚 said that it weighs eighteen stones. That鈥檚 equivalent to 114 kilograms. It鈥檚 oval and difficult to lift.

We have an account of the stone from 1880. There was a farmer living in the area. His name was William MacIntosh. He was 77 years of age. MacIntosh told the man who wrote the account 鈥� William Jolly 鈥� that he was able to lift the stone when he was young.

Not only that. A friend of Jolly鈥檚 who was with him said that his grandmother had lifted the stone. She did that by putting her apron underneath it!

An interesting account was written of a connection between the stone and North Uist. A hundred years ago, a man from Skye 鈥� Donald Maclean 鈥� was a farmer in Barevan. Donald bought cattle from people in North Uist. He came to know Uist folk.

He gave work to some of them on his farm at the time of the Second [World] War. The Uist men held a competition to see who was able to lift the stone. Only one man managed it 鈥� a certain Peter Maclean. It must be that the Macleans are strong!

In 2012, a man from Elgin, Martin Jancsics, lifted the stone to his shoulder. He says it is not as heavy as some maintain. It only weighs 105 kg!

Four years after that, he returned to make a video of himself lifting the stone. That can be seen on YouTube. Since then, several people have made videos [of them] lifting the stone high.

There is something nice about these lifting stones. They are to be found in beautiful places. They are connected to the heritage of the Gaels. And the stones are very historic, as is the one in Barevan.
