 UK Diving Places To Dive
Anchoring the dive boat in a sheltered gully surrounded on three sides by towering cliffs, which are cut into by numerous caverns and ravines, I always have mixed feelings of adrenalin and excitement, not knowing what I'll come across.
Before my first of many dives at this gully on the northern edge of the island of Muckle Roe (known as 'Big Red', after the colour of its stone), I'd simply heard that it was 'pretty damn good': it has always lived up to its reputation.
I've dived at quite a few other, equally spectacular sites along the eastern cliffs of Muckle Roe and Papa Stour, but I keep returning to these gullies: they're the most picturesque I've dived in for a long time and, visually, they're everything an underwater photographer could ask for.

 Shetland Museum - Culture - Peat Creels
The creels were developed relatively recently in the 19th century, and were used on the west side of Shetland only, in Muckle Roe and Aithsting.
The use of creels evolved from the traditional Shetland method of carrying quantities of peat, using a combination of straw kishies and meshies -(baskets and nets,) balanced on each side of the animal from a klibber, a traditional wooden pack saddle.
Creels were used until 1940 and these rare examples originated in Hivdiwick, Muckle Roe.

 Anchor
It is of a folding stock type 2.5m long.
On Sunday 24 December 1865 the anchor chains of the Ayrshire broke while she was sheltering in the lee of the land off the Swarbacks Minn and she was run under bare poles into Gilsabight, Muckle Roe, where she was driven ashore in the middle of a snow storm.
The fact that the Ayrshire broke here anchor chains before bing run in to Gilsabight probably means that her other anchors were lost before she was run ashore in Gilssabight.
