Discover the Intriguing St. Kilda Islands
The year 2007 marks the 50th anniversary since the archipelago of St. Kilda Islands was bequeathed to the National Trust for Scotland by the Earl of Dumfries. During the past five decades the Trust and its many volunteers have worked to protect St. Kilda’s unique beauty. In 1958 the work parties of volunteers concentrated on restoring and maintaining six cottages along the Village Bay main street. These cottages have served as shelter for volunteers and researchers who spend time in the summer months on these remote Scottish islands.
