theres not many mate, the western isles only have a small population. most of the buildings are croft's( small farms) these go back many generations. most of the hebridian islands are peat bogs and mountains.
but i was a bit shocked that there were houses so close, but when i was told about the local history and got the feel of the place i understood it a bit more

i stayed here mate in the youth hostel part, it was ten pounds a night. the hostel itself is part of the rebuilt crofters blackhouse village. you could also camp at the bottom of the village for six pounds a night and use the hostels showers , kitchen ect. http://www.gearrannan.com/Default.asp?Page=6 we did skye and harris as well and camped on those. all the locations were very cheap and spectacular ![]() this is the blackhouse village the hostel is the second one in on the left. ![]() this is the camping, where my mate stayed a couple of nights ![]() you can actually pitch your tent in the ruins of the old black houses, this helps with the cold atlantic winds

In sw england (Avon) there are stone circles and a cove next to a medieval pub called the Driud inn. What is unusual is that the stones are poorly sign posted and even locals are not aware these stones exist. I dont know if they are on a leyline but it is close to camelot, glastonbury, bath area.
