Calgary Pier
This small stone pier was built from Iona
marble and was once used to take sheep to and from grazing on the
Treshnish Isles.
Here the residents of Inivea and other nearby townships were shipped out
to Canada and the East Coast of America as part of the infamous Highland
Clearances. Note the ruin of the old pier house, set into what looks
like a wall but is actually a volcanic dyke.
