Old Photograph Ferry Lochboisdale Scotland

Old photograph of a ferry arriving at Lochboisdale, South Uist, Scotland. This Scottish island town profited from the herring 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.
