Traigh Bhalaigh The island of Vallay (Bhalaigh), is only accessible by foot at low tide. It is situated on the North of North Uist. The island itself has standing stones and remnants of ancient settlements and the crumbling ruins of Vallay House. This, once grand, building and several outhouses was owned by Erskine Beveridge, who contributed greatly to the archaeology of North Uist and wrote a weighty book on the subject.
