Port of Ness Harbour, c.1800; rebuilt c.1885 Reminiscent of fishing stations on the mainland's north-east coast and now regrettably under-used, this small, cellular dock was the lifeblood of Ness, whose people's skill at boat handling is legendary. Its concrete remodelling by D. & T. Stevenson in the early 1890s included the (now partially collapsed) breakwater.
