Old travel Blog photograph of thatched cottages at Kyles Of Scalpay across from the island of Scalpay on Island Of Harris, Scotland. Scalpay is home to many Gaelic singers and psalm presenters. The island used to have more than 10 shops over 30 years ago but due to lack of people and work, the last shop closed in 2007. There also used to be a salmon factory which was a major local employer from 2001 until its closure in 2005. In the spring of 2009, local newspapers reported that the factory was to reopen.
