They Left

There came moments during the early 1970s when the last residents of Scarp, North Harris, felt that they had to leave ... and they went, abandoning their houses, shop and telephone box. In an earlier era someone left their house (below) across the water in Glen Cravadale. However, with the passage of time, people return, not necessarily to settle permanently. Take a look at a part of the website of Marc Calhoun who visits these parts regularly and comes all the way from the Pacific North-West of the United States.
