Geography and geology[edit]Hildasay has an area of 108 hectares (267 acres), and is 32 metres (105\u00a0ft) in elevation at its highest point. It consists of red-green granite (epidotic syenite) that was quarried for many years.[3][6]The south coast has two narrow inlets, Cusa Voe and Tangi Voe. “West”, the larger of two lochs, has a single islet. A satellite island, Linga lies to the south east. A long line of skerries and holms lies to the north west.[3]History[edit]Hildasay has been uninhabited since the late nineteenth century, but as late as 1891 had a population of 30. The island’s former industries included curing herring and quarrying granite. The remains of a railway line leading from the quarry to the harbour can still be seen.[6]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4As of 2020 there was one house on the island, which was temporarily occupied by charity walker Chris Lewis and his dog Jet when movement restrictions were imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]Notes and references[edit]^ Area and population ranks: there are c.\u2009300 islands over 20\u2009ha in extent and 93 permanently inhabited islands were listed in the 2011 census.^ 2001 UK Census per List of islands of Scotland^ a b c Haswell-Smith, Hamish (2004).
