Small Hut on Shore

This is a small hut up from the shore, been done up recently, purpose is unknown, but the fishfarmers nearby called it the 'Emergency Shack'. Just behind it is the track, inside it is two pallets, and the remnants of rifle cartridge boxes.

Disused jetty

At the end of a forestry road is a clearing and this stone built jetty. Was it built to provide access to the forest by boat? Forest clearance is currently underway near here, but the logs are being removed by road. The land beyond is the Island of Scalpay.

Beach north of Broadford

There is a signposted path round this headland from Broadford cemetery to Corry. The rocky beach is slow-going, and the grassy strip at the top of the beach is very boggy.

Basalt beach

Just here, a flat outcrop of basalt is exposed on the beach. Several dykes extend into the sea. Note that the forest in John Allan's picture NG6326 : Beach on Broadford Bay has now been felled.
