The fertile Trotternish peninsula in northern Skye was disputed between the MacLeods and MacDonalds through the sixteenth century. The MacLeods under Alasdair Crotach raided across from Dunvegan and held Trotternish for several years in the 1530s and 1540s. James V was forced to intervene to settle the dispute. Trotternish eventually remained with the MacDonalds.
