Stunning shell sand beaches fringed with machair, vast expanses of moorland, rugged hills, dramatic cliffs and surrounding seas all contain a rich biodiversity of flora, fauna and marine life. Together with a thriving Gaelic culture, this provides an inspiring island environment to live, study and work in, and a culturally rich place to explore as a visitor. The islands are privileged to be home to several award-winning contemporary Art Centres and Festivals, plus a creative trail of many smaller artist/maker run spaces. This publication aims to guide you to the galleries, shops and websites, where Art and Craft made in the Outer Hebrides can be enjoyed. En-route there are numerous sculptures, landmarks, historical and archaeological sites to visit. The guide documents some (but by no means all) of these contemplative places, which interact with the surrounding landscape, interpreting elements of island history and relationships with the natural environment. The Comhairle’s Heritage and Library Services are comprehensively detailed. Museum nan Eilean at Lews Castle in Stornoway, by special loan from the British Museum, is home to several of the Lewis Chessmen, one of the most significant archaeological finds in the UK. Throughout the islands a network of local historical societies, run by dedicated volunteers, hold a treasure trove of information, including photographs, oral histories, genealogies, croft histories and artefacts specific to their locality.

[2020] CSIH 49 XA113/19 Lord President Lord Brodie Lord Malcolm
FIRST DIVISION, INNER HOUSE, COURT OF SESSION [2020] CSIH 49 XA113/19 Lord President Lord Brodie Lord Malcolm OPINION OF THE COURT delivered by LORD CARLOWAY, the LORD PRESIDENT in the Special Case stated by the Scottish Land Court in the appeals by CROFTERS having rights in the common grazings of: SANDWICKHILL NORTH STREET; MELBOST and BRANAHUIE; SANDWICK and SANDWICK EAST STREET; and AIGNISH Appellants against THE CROFTING COMMISSION (COIMISEAN NA CROITEARACHD) Respondents and THE STORNOWAY TRUST Interested Parties ______________ Appellants: J d C Findlay QC, Garrity; Gillespie Macandrew LLP Respondents: R D Sutherland; Balfour & Manson LLP Interested Parties: Gill; Pinsent Masons (for Anderson MacArthur, Stornoway) 19 August 2020 Introduction [1] This is an appeal by four crofting townships near Stornoway against determinations 2 by the respondents that their applications for approval of the installation of community- owned wind farms on their respective common grazings were invalid because the proposals would be detrimental to the interests of the landowners, namely the interested parties, in terms of section 50B(2)(b) of the Crofters (Scotland) Act 1993. [2] The issues are defined by the questions in the special case, viz, in summary: (1) is the formal validity of an application for approval under section 50B(6) of the 1993 Act a matter that can be determined by reference to section 50B(2); (2) does such an application require to be determined in accordance with the provisions of section 58A; (3) is a prospective commercial enterprise of the landowner a relevant ‘interest’ for the purposes of section 50B(2); (4) were the respondents’ decisions to allow late objections and representations of the interested parties lawful and in accordance with the 1993 Act; and (5) was there sufficient evidence that the appellants’ proposed uses would be detrimental to the interests of the respondent landowner? At the heart of the substantive questions are the respective rights of the landowner of a common grazing and the crofters in relation to the use of the land.
