Weisdale
Weisdale is a bay, hamlet and ancient parish in Shetland. The bay opens near the northern extremity of Scalloway Bay, and strikes four and a half miles to the north north east. The hamlet lies at the bay's head, about twelve miles north west of Lerwick. ==History== Weisdale was the scene of a series of evictions of crofters in favour of large scale sheep farming in the 19th century. Approximately three hundred and eighteen crofters were evicted from the Weisdale valley in what is described as the clearances. Local author John J. Graham wrote two novels on this theme.
