Hoswick, Shetland Mainland
★
This useful building halfway between Lerwick and Sumburgh multitasks as a community hub, cafe, gift shop and heritage centre. The latter part is far from extensive but covers Shetland geology, fishing, whaling and local weaving traditions – with an old loom forming part of the display.
