Old Photograph Waternish Isle Of Slye Scotland
Old photograph of crofters cottages in Waternish on the Isle Of Skye, Scotland. Waternish or Vaternish is a peninsula on the island of Skye, Scotland, situated between Loch Dunvegan and Loch Snizort in the northwest of the island, and traditionally inhabited and owned by Clan MacLeod whose clan seat is at the nearby Dunvegan Castle. The current clan chief is Hugh Macleod of Macleod. It contains the hamlets of Stein and Lusta in Loch Bay to the south east, Halistra, Hallin and Trumpan further north and Gillen to the west, all of which are accessed from the A850 road by crossing the Fairy Bridge. The history of the peninsula is a long, and often bloody, one involving clan feuds, massacres, de-population during the Highland Clearances.
