Description

Shieldaig is a village in Wester Ross in the Northwest Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.
The village was founded in 1800 with a view to training up seamen for war against Napoleon. After his defeat and exile to Elba, the community found itself a new role as a fishing village. The small island just offshore never had its tall pines harvested to rig warships, and has now become a nature sanctuary.
