Summary

Old houses in Tiree.

There is a very old house at Balphetrish - one of the earliest types of buildings constructed in Tiree. There is also one at Gott Bay, one at Mannel, and one at the old pier at Scarinish. Most of the hotel building at Scarinish is also very old. A two-storey house at Caolas was built by a sea captain, John MacDonald.
