Isle of Eigg Village is strongest on Isolation 8/10 — A roughly 12-mile sea crossing creates genuine regional separation with no road connection to mainland population centres. Eigg remains regularly accessible by sea rather than extremely remote, so it fits the unusually removed class rather than 9-10.. Its clearest scored constraint is Defensibility 4/10 — The inhabited settlement is not a fortress: homes, crofts, roads and community facilities do not form a continuous hardened defended boundary. Sea separation helps before contact but belongs mainly to Isolation and Exposure Control, so direct walker pressure still requires improvised local defence around chosen occupied nodes..
