Easdale Island Folk Museum

About

Easdale Island Folk Museum tells the story of the island’s once-intensive slate industry and the community that grew around it. Displays also cover social life, geology, boats, military and medical history, with local records and artefacts giving context to the quarry landscape visible around the island.
