Title

Croft, Sanday, Orkney

Description

The Croft, whose inhabitants left in 1966, was taken over by the Heritage Group who, in 2011 started renovating the interior. The first image in of the ‘But’ end of the Croft and the second image is of the ‘Ben’ end. The original flag stone floors were found when the concrete flooring was taken up. The furniture and household items were supplied by generous gifts from the island folk which enable the Croft to depict what it would have looked like in the 1900’s.
