A Sensational Visit

The promotion of Mangursta, at the end of the Uig road, as the prospective St Kilda Visitors' Centre included this short sensational video. You can certainly experience something of the conditions on the rocky outcrops some 40 miles away. Go via: http://scottishancestry.blogspot.com/2009/10/st-kilda-centre-for-mangurstadh-lewis.html 

 

Leverburgh - An Alternative Site

Some trips to St Kilda depart from Leverburgh, an alternative site for the proposed Visitors' Centre. Take a look around: http://www.leverburgh.co.uk/

 

The Ravenspoint Experience

There's more to do at Kershader, in the Lochs district of Lewis, than first meets the eye. Look around: http://www.ravenspoint.net/raven_home_page.htm

 

Flickr Around Rhenigidale

There's something about Rhenigidale that inspires good photography. Flick through: http://www.flickr.com/places/United+Kingdom/Scotland/Rhenigidale

 

There's Something About Berneray

This collection of photographs gives evidence as to why many people return to Berneray. Image no 1475 shows the windows of the dormitory building at the Hostel. "A view from here at £10 per night? - You must be joking!" Glimpse: http://www.buyimage.co.uk/photonet/berneray/berneray.html 

 

Images of Garenin

The lack of colour in this recent gallery of images of Garenin does give the place an authentic feel. Go back a hundred or so years: http://www.photographyof.co.uk/garenin-blackhouse-village.htm

 

Howmore's Significance

Close to the Howmore hostel are some of the most significant ecclesiastical sites in the Western Isles. See what's there: http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/southuist/teampullmor/index.html
