This is the most visited tourist attraction on the Western Isles and I try to stay well away during the summer months. Twenty or more years ago the old 18th century farm house was acquired and a special architect designed visitors centre was built to curl around the old house. Very few people walk the two hundred yards of single track road that leads down to a tiny jetty. It is hardly used these days but since it came within the parameters of the piers and jetty project I wanted to include it, particularly since it also gave me a reason for including the Calanish stones. The vertical format, very often used as a statement now provided a meandering storyline taking you from the jetty passed the glamping pods, along the foreshore, and up to the stones via the visitors centre. Since stitching this the old house even though a listed building has been destroyed.
