Blackhouse village

Boo :)


I have finally got around to charging my phone and getting the pics uploaded...heres some pics of our visit to the blackhouse village here ...http://www.virtualhebrides.com/location/gearrannan/index.htm

they are very small inside, one room at the end that was the workroom, at least it looked like a workroom, a big old loom, several baskets, hay in the corner..then one living room..with a very slanted floor and one bedroom, the living room also had a bed in it, its an interesting place to visit if you are ever up here, but you couldn't really make a day of it, our tribe didn't stay for long as it just didn't catch there enthusiasm maybe they will appreciate the beauty of the place in a few more years :0)
