South Uist, 2021.

It isn't unusual for people (and especially photographers) to get all dreamy about abandoned croft houses such as these when often the reality is much more prosaic. This family croft house simply wasn't up to modern standards, the new family house is the other side of the ridge. There is no real need to demolish this house, so it doesn't get demolished.

Many of you will know the house on the cover of Paul Strand's classic book 'Tir a'Mhurain - this is the house from the other direction on a slightly more windy day...
