From the Wikipedia article
Eilean a' Ghiorr is a bridged island that now forms part of the North Ford Causeway or Oitir Mór between North Uist and Benbecula in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. In 2022 the census recorded a permanent population on the island of a single individual. Along the main causeway to the north is the uninhabited islet of Garbh-eilean, which is in turn connected to the islet of Eilean Leathann by a small causeway that branches off the main road to the west. Heading south on the A865 the causeway leads to Grimsay.
