- Now-ruinous Castle Tioram may well have been a Clann Ruaidhrí stronghold. The island the fortress sits upon—" (en)
- "—is first recorded in a charter of Christina.ref|The castle itself is first recorded in a later charter of Eóin Mac Domhnaill I, Lord of the Isles to his son, Raghnall Mac Domhnaill. The latter's mother was Áine Nic Ruaidhrí, Christina's niece, and a member of Clann Ruaidhrí. The fact the island is mentioned in Christina's charter could be evidence of the castle's existence at the time. Even if it had not been constructed by this date, the island must have been significant enough to be worthy of mention alongside other Clann Ruaidhrí territories. The seventeenth-century Sleat History states that the castle was constructed by Áine. Certainly, Castle Tioram served as the seat of Áine's Clann Raghnaill descendants for centuries.|group=note (en)
