Antrim Rathlin Island (Church Bay) label reads 'Rathlin Island. The island has earned a niche in history for having been the haven of Robert Bruce in 1306 after his defeat at Perth. His refuge on the north shore, now known as Bruce's Cave, is worthy of a visit. There is a motor boat service between Ballycastle and Rathlin, tide and weather permitting.'

National Museums NI holds over a million objects in the collection, as well as this we manage the records and associated images for each object through a working database. The national collection has been almost 200 years in the making, and we recognise that thinking about collecting and collections has evolved over this time and continues to evolve. As a result, some of our records may contain language and views that we now consider offensive and unacceptable, for example, reflecting racist attitudes. We are committed to addressing these issues, and to reviewing and updating our records accordingly. Working with researchers, communities and academic partners we are learning more about the stories behind objects, and we are committed to sharing these with our audiences. We welcome feedback.
