Shiskine (Scottish Gaelic: An t-Seasgann) is a small village on the Isle of Arran in the Firth of Clyde, Scotland. The village is within the parish of Kilmory.[1] Sitting further up the "Shiskine Valley" from the village of Blackwaterfoot, the village takes its name from a corruption of the Gaelic for "marshy place". Much of the area was essentially a swamp years ago, but now comprises farm land.
The village has its own primary school[2] and local church.[3] There is a possible hillfort at Cnoc Ballygowan close by to the village, though its antiquity is disputed.[4] Shiskine is close to the peaks of Beinn Nuis and Beinn Bharrain.
