The Old Croft House
Croft House, Eriskay, Outer Hebrides, Scotland
This abandoned croft house on the Isle of Eriskay is typical of many such houses in the Outer Hebrides. After the First world War simple 'modern' houses were built to replace the old stone and thatch black houses. They were often modelled on the black house with just two rooms and extensions and additions were made later using whatever materials were to hand, in this case corrugated iron.
Eriskay is home to a breed of ponies found living wild only on this island and a couple can be seen in the background.
