There is a rather splendid scale model of a sailing ship in a glass case mounted on the wall inside Lamlash Parish Church.
That same ship has been making national headlines recently due to the threat hanging over the Falls of Clyde - a Greenock-built ship which has been permanently moored at Pier 7 in Honolulu for more than 50 years.
In 1989 she was declared a US National Historic Landmark, but the Hawaii De partment of Transport has now declared her dangerous and cancelled her permit to remain in the harbour.
