Introduction / Pharay Photos / Lakequoy Houses / Roadside

From the Boat: Roadside

This is one of a series of photos taken from the boat going from Kirkwall to Rapness in Westray, along the west side of Pharay. They were taken on a November morning when conditions were not ideal but they give a feeling for the position of the houses on the island and their proximity to the sea.

Roadside lies just to the east of the road that runs from north to south down the island. It is one of the Lakequoy houses and more visible from the sea as only the low walls of Lakequoy remain

The remains of the Hill, another of the Lakequoy houses can be seen to the left.

Lakequoy lies just to the south of Hammar (no photo from the sea), which is also up by the road. It is also close to Windywa, which lies to the south but closer to geos on the west side of the island
