Old Photograph Lochboisdale Scotland

Old photograph of Lochboisdale, South Uist, Scotland. This has always been the main population centre on the island which 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. Lochboisdale is the ferry terminal for the island of South Uist.
