Old Photograph Road To Lochboisdale South Uist Scotland

Old photograph of Crofters cottages by the road to Lochboisdale, South Uist, Scotland. This Scottish island town profited from the herring fishing boom in the 19th century, and a steamer pier was built in 1880. In 1905, a mission church was built, and by 1953, steamers were connecting Lochboisdale with Oban, Castlebay, Mallaig and Lochmaddy. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
