Looking towards Loch a Siar and the football pitch beside the junior secondary school. The cream-coloured concrete carbuncle is the Old Hostel. This was once used to house the school kids that couldn't get home every night from classes -in the days when there were poor roads and no public transport. The Hostel is now the hub for community-related organisations including the Council, Harris Voluntary Services, North Harris Trust and the dentist and school canteen. It is scheduled to be demolished in the near future following a major redevelopment of Sir E Scott school.
