Farewell to Raasay (6) It was time to go home. Once again it was sad to leave Raasay behind. This is a view of Inverarish taken from the ferry. A brief snow shower almost obscures the higher ground behind the village. There had been more snow showers during the night and even on Raasay, the snow-line was down nearly to the shore.

Farewell to Raasay (2) It was time to go home. Once again I was sad to drive on to the ferry and leave Raasay. Here the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry MV Hallaig heads out into the Narrows of Raasay towards Skye . There had been more snow showers during the night and the snow-line over the mountains on Skye was much lower than the previous day.

The village of Inverarish is the largest settlement on Raasay. The two terraces of cottages were originally built to house workers at the nearby former ironstone mine. Dùn Caan (444m), the highest point on Raasay, overlooks the scene.

The old ferry terminal and quay at East Suisnish on the island of Raasay. The quay was formerly used to transport processed iron ore from the iron mine near Inverarish. The buildings and ruins behind the pier are the remains of the iron ore processing plant. The present-day ferry terminal, opened in 2011, is at Clachan, 2 km to the NNE.
