From a cow in Ardroil to the British Museum – the Lewis Chessmen have travelled far! 🏰 Carved in the 12th century, these walrus ivory treasures were first exhibited in Malcolm MacLeod’s byre and sold for just £30. Today, one found in 2019 fetched £795,000! Some are back in Lewis at the museum in Stornoway. Could missing pieces still be hidden on the beaches of Uig? 👀 #VisitOuterHebrides #outerhebrides 📸@christian.amat | Visit Outer Hebrides
