The view north towards North Uist over the island of Benbecula in the Western Isles. Once accessible only by tidal fords from North Uist and South Uist, Benbecula is now connected to its neighbouring islands by causeways.

The highly memorable peat smoke atmosphere at the superb Blackhouse Museum at Arnol on the Isle of Lewis in the Western Isles. The museum recreates a way of life that was once common across significant parts of Scotland. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/lewis/blackhousemuseum/index.html

Abandonment. This house on #northuist is in a “to die for” location yet it’s occupants just upped and left.

@UndisScot My father's parents lived in one of these "black houses" on Lewis before he was born. An earlier son of theirs was a toddler when he went too close to the open fire and knocked over a big pot of water which was boiling over the fire and was scalded so badly he died. Soon after that the family moved to one of the new "white houses" where my father was born and he escaped that danger.
