Little Bernera lies between the sea lochs of West and East Loch Roag, immediately to the north of Great Bernera. The island rises to a height of {{convert|42|m|ft|0|abbr=off}} and has an area of 138 ha. The island has evidence of continuous settlement for centuries notably in the remains of former dwellings and chapels. The last tenants were forcibly evicted in 1825 when the island was turned into a satellite of Linshader farm. Following the clearance of the island the only habitable building as noted on the first edition of the Ordnance Survey was the slated fish curing-house. The island also contained a school set up by the SSPCK. A few centuries ago, the island was the place where people of Carloway were buried, before a cemetery was built in that village. Today, gravestones can still be seen on the island, but are beginning to disappear into the ground. At Tràigh an Teampaill, there is the ruined chapel of St Michael and an adjacent cemetery. The island is also the site of the former chapel of St Dondans of which no trace remains but is generally believed to be sited in the very north-west near Mol Mòr. The west of the island is extremely rugged and differs significantly from the machair land of the eastern side which benefits from the blown shell sand of the picturesque beaches of Tràigh Mhòr and Tràigh na Teampuill. {{clear left}}Footnotes1. ^{{NRS1C}} {{Loch Ròg}}{{Lewis and Harris}}{{Islands of Scotland}}{{coord|58|15|55|N|6|52|24|W|display=title}}{{WesternIsles-geo-stub}}2. ^{{Haswell-Smith}} 3. ^{{Ordnance Survey}} 4. ^{{Gaelic Placenames}} 2 : Islands of Loch Ròg|Cleared places in the Outer Hebrides |
