Inchgarvie

From Freepedia

Inchgarvie is a small island in the Firth of Forth to the east of Scotland. It is near the Forth Bridge. It is heavily fortified from WWII and rumoured to be full of oversized rats.

It featured in the end scene of the 2000 film version of Iain Banks' Complicity (1993) – (dir. Gavin Millar) (retitled Retribution for its US DVD/video release.

Its name comes from Innis Garbhach which is Scottish Gaelic for 'Rough Island'.

It features occasionally in a riddle, "How many inches is the Forth?", playing on a pun on 'Inch' (Innis) an old Scottish Gaelic word for island, and inch, the imperial measurement.
