Stromness gables
Hamnavoe - Wonderful place made all the better with a knowledge of George Mackay Brown's poetry. Fantastic museum at the end of the twisting narrow main streets also. The houses were built gable on the sea front to protect them and they had their own landing jettys many of which are still there.
