This area of the island - its most extensive urban area - can appear quite colourful, whether seen from street level http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1276410 or from above. Yellow lichen on the rooftops plays its part, and even on this island of quarries there's room for a street or two of redbrick houses.
