Hornais Cemetery is a historical site on the island of North Uist in Scotland. It is located near the village of Lochmaddy and contains the graves of several prominent local families, such as the Macdonalds of Vallay and the Macleods of Berneray. The cemetery also has a memorial to the victims of the SS Politician shipwreck in 1941, which inspired the novel and film Whisky Galore.
