Old Photographs Crofters Cottage North Uist Scotland

Old photograph of crofters inside a cottage on North Uist, Outer Hebrides, Scotland. During the 18th and 19th centuries, many crofters were cleared from inland areas to make way for large-scale sheep farming, often forced to move to poorer coastal land or emigrate, creating intense, traumatic memories.
