Old Photograph Cottages Uisken Bay Isle Of Mull Scotland

Old photograph of crofters cottages at Uisken Bay, Isle Of Mull, Scotland. Uisken, meaning water bay, is a settlement on a sandy bay on the Ross of Mull in the south of the Isle of Mull. Originally a series of small settlements before the Highland clearances it was developed as a fishing and crofting settlement with a small quay, known as Port Uisken, and road over to the steamer pier at Bunessan, the development being funded by the Duke of Argyll. The quay soon fell into disrepair but crofting continued with seven crofts being mentioned in the early 1920s and three crofts still being worked today.
