Old Photograph Burravoe Yell Shetland Islands Scotland

Old photograph of cottages in Burravoe on the Isle of Yell, Shetland Islands, Scotland. The most notable building here is the Old Haa Museum which dates from 1637 and is the oldest house on Yell. On 19 January 1942, a Catalina aeroplane crashed on the hill above Burravoe. Seven of her ten passengers were killed, and one of the propellers can be seen outside the Old Haa Museum.
