Summary

Description
English: Roping peg, St Kilda. The St Kildans used to climb down the sheer cliffs to retrieve fulmar chicks and eggs; this peg, close to the steep cliffs of Conachair, may have been used to anchor the ropes. In the background is Boreray and Stac Liath (Lee) and Stac an Armainn.
