Orkney Wireless Museum, 1 Junction Road, Kirkwall
Category C listed and dated 1866 the close resemblance to the Harbour Master's office in Stromness and its proximity to the harbour hints at its possible original use. Junction Road was constructed in 1865 along with Castle Street in order to open up the approach to the harbour and this was one of the first buildings to go up.
