Esha Ness on the west coast of Shetland Mainland - formed by fire and ice. Whalsay - "The bonny isle". Yell - "The big brown friendly island". Three contrasting areas of Shetland in this video.
Many thanks for this. A "haa" was a laird's house, and a number were built across Shetland from the 1600s onwards, of which the Tangwick Haa is one of the best examples.
Great little video clips, enjoyed watching them ahead of our trip, thank you.
Great video

It would be Norse rather than Gaelic
Scots Ha' a Hall.
Not pronounced " Whalslay "
