Isle Of Lewis
The Isle of Lewis comprises the northern section of Lewis and Harris, the largest island of the Western Isles or Outer Hebrides, an island chain, of Scotland. With a population of 18500, covering 27 square miles of the area, the Isle of Lewis has a total area of 683 square miles. Beyond human habitation, the island's large and numerous habitats are the home of a wide range of plants and animals, featuring the golden eagle, red deer and seals, which are recognised in several conservation areas in the area. Seen from the Isle of Lewis is primarily sandy beaches backed by dunes and machair on the Atlantic west coast, which yields to an expansive peat covered plateau in the island's centre. Its eastern coastline is visibly more rugged and consists largely of rocky cliffs divided by small coves and beaches. Because of the more fertile nature of the eastern side, most of the population has actually settled there, that includes Stornoway, the largest town. The Isle of Lewis is rather flat when compared with Harris. It is a part of a National Scenic Area, and there are four geographic Sites of Special Scientific Interest, featuring Port of Ness and Tolsta Head. Being of a Presbyterian heritage, the region has a rich history, and it was once part of the Norse Kingdom of Mann and the Isles. Life on the Isle of Lewis appears to be of substantial difference to in other places in Scotland. It has mainly kept its Sabbath observance, the Gaelic language and peat cutting. There is a rich cultural heritage in the Isle of Lewis, reflected in its myths, legends, literary and music traditions.
