Oronsay Priory was an Augustinian monastic community on the island of Oronsay, Inner Hebrides. It was in existence by 1353, perhaps founded by John of Islay, Lord of the Isles. It was dedicated to St Columba, and perhaps was a continuation or a re-activation of an older establishment. We know very little about it because of the absence of records and its remoteness from Lowland Scotland, but on occasions some of the priors of Oronsay come into the record.
