Description:

The celebration of the amazing decorative cast ironwork will go on display from April 2008 in a joint project between Historic Scotland and Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar. The exhibition will tell the story of the ironwork, its enormous popularity in the 19th century, and how it survived in Stornoway despite vanishing from much of Britain during World War II, when large amounts were removed for the war effort. Please phone for Winter opening times from beginning of October.
