'The Island of Faray Orkney’s lesser known North Isle' by Lynn Campbell

The island of Faray – abandoned in 1947 – is something of an enigma, having been almost forgotten in the course of less than 100 years.  Debates rage over the pronunciation, the impending works on a new slipway or the proposed OIC windfarm. Finally, Faray is back in people’s minds. This, therefore, seems like as good a time as any to look at a bit of history of the island.
