Old photograph of Walls, Shetland Islands, Scotland. A pier was built at Walls in the 18th century, and from 1838, it was a centre for fish curing. Waas, as it is known locally, was the childhood home of two fine poets, Vagaland and Christine de Luca, and in 1884 was the birthplace of both Peter Fraser, musician and founder member of the Shetland Fiddlers' Society, and William Moffatt, the author.
