Ardvasar
Ardvasar is a village near the southern end of the Sleat peninsula, on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. It is just to the south of the village of Armadale, where a ferry crosses to Mallaig. Nearby attractions include Armadale Castle and the Museum of the Isles.
The Gaelic name is often translated as the Point of the Executioner, but the element translated as executioner is obscure. In the first detailed census of the area, 99.0% of residents were recorded as able to speak Gaelic, with 20.2% recorded as mono-lingual Gaelic speakers. In the last census, 26.7% of residents were reported as able to speak Gaelic. The local school, Bun-sgoil Shlèite/Sleat Primary School, is a designated Gaelic school with an English unit, and Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, Scotlands Gaelic College, is away in Kilbeg.
