Scope and Content Portuairk (left) and Sanna (right) are crofting townships established in the 1820s and 1850s to provide holdings for those evicted from elsewhere. Many of the houses are now holiday homes. At Portuairk, the linear gully of white sand has two rows of boulders which are thought to have been fish traps functioning at high tide.
