Cattle in Howmore

The threads of economic life that run through Howmore – from crofting, bus garaging, cycle retailing to bed and breakfast accommodation and hostel provision – include, of course, keeping (or trying to keep) cattle. The creatures have a tendency to roam and will feature occasionally on the road to the hostel. So beware and be aware of animals as well as of there being no longer a grocery shop nor petrol supply in the village.
