The Stack

The Stack
Taken at Staxigoe Harbour., near Wick, Caithness, Scotland on a beautiful day

Staxigoe is from the Norse 'gja or geo' meaning inlet and 'stakkr' meaning stack or rock, thus inlet of the stack. It is a pretty little harbour, dating back to at least 1878, which was when the harbour was to be found on the first Ordnance Survey Map, although it is a natural harbour and there are suggestions the harbour itself could date back to the 1600s. It was once the largest herring salting stations in Europe.

I have added a Gene Clark song called 'Rough and Rocky' as my link
