clachann.

Brit.

/ˈklax(ə)n/,

/ˈklæx(ə)n/, Scottish English

/ˈklæxɒːn/

Forms: 1500s clauchanne, 1600s clauchan, 1700s claughan, 1800s clachen, 1600s– clachan.

Etymology: Gaelic clachan ‘village, hamlet, burying-place’ (Shaw), apparently < clach stone. The form in modern Gaelic, with secondary stress on -an, is that of a diminutive of clach; but it is not clear what the original sense was; its most common current use is ‘stepping-stones’ across a stream, but it has been used for ‘village’ in Gaelic song and phrase. It used to be said that the three requisites of a Highland village were a church, an inn, and a smithy; hence the contextual use of clachan both for ‘the church’ and the ‘public-house’. (Prof. Mackinnon.)

Scottish and Irish English (northern).

A small village or hamlet in the Highlands or west of Scotland. Also attributive.
