North Roe

North Roe is situated right up at the top NE mainland, approached easily by the road leading towards Eshaness from Brae


As the road splits from Ollaberry it passes the left turn to Ronas Voe and this is where the Gruffalo sits. Beyond this long twisting road , the small village of North Roe.




Its really a Gnome city, with plenty of little people popping up all over the place

It certainly brightens up the place and in one garden several WW2 wind vanes can be seen.

The small garden is also worth a visit.

Beyond this, you can see the aircraft in a garden used as a shed. Old boats and several old buildings including the old Methodist chapel








On the way out I stopped to see an old boat which seem stuck in a small lochan.





Overall a great place to go with plenty of interesting items to hold your attention



It was good to hear that the BBC have decided to do two more `Shetland' programmes featuring Jimmy Perez. Will start filming again next year.
