A brilliant hostel in the 1970s and 1980s with wardens Hosie, then Fisher; I'm sure it continued that way. The building was originally constructed in the 1800s as part of a plan to develop wool manufacturing and large-scale fishing within the nearby area. Image scanned from a 35mm Kodacolor II negative, date circa (August) 1976.
