Damp is a serious problem, particularly if you live in an old property, because it can lead to structural damage. This will cost you big money and could be very dangerous, to yourself and the property. Take damp seriously and get it inspected and resolved as soon as you discover it!
Isle Of Scalpay
Scalpay is an island in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Scalpay is around 4 kilometres (2.5 miles) long and rises to a height of 104 metres (341 feet) at Beinn Scorabhaig. The location of Scalpay is 653 hectares (2.52 sq mi). The main negotiation on the island goes to the north, near the bridge, clustered around An Acairseid a Tuath (North Harbour). The island is peppered with little lochans. The biggest of these is Loch an Duin (Loch of the Fort) which has a little island in it, with the remains of the ft still visible. Eilean Glas, a small peninsula on Scalpay's eastern coast, is house to the very first lighthouse to be constructed in the Outer Hebrides. Scalpay's nearby neighbour, Harris, is just 300 metres (980 feet) away across the tightens of Caolas Scalpaigh. In 1997, a bridge from Harris to Scalpay was constructed, changing a ferry service. In 2001, the island had 322 individuals, whose main work was fish farming as well as prawn fishing. By 2011 the population had actually decreased by 9% to 291 whilst throughout the very same period Scottish island populations as a whole expanded by 4% to 103,702.
