Sorisdale () is a small, remote settlement on the northern coast of the Isle of Coll, in the council area of Argyll and Bute, Scotland.
History More than a century ago, it was a thriving community, however, most of Sorisdale now lies abandoned and in ruin, except for a few small, still-occupied homes.
Sorisdale could have been settled as far back as the Mesolithic period.
Etymology The name Sorisdale originates from the Old Norse words "saurr", meaning mud or silt, and "dalr", meaning a valley or dale.
