What is recorded here
Calbaigh Castle and salmon farm is a castle, fort or tower in Na h-Eileanan Siar, Scotland. Perhaps the castle watched the water while the salmon farm filled it with life. Maybe people moved between stone and net, reading the sea in two different languages.

Calbaigh Castle, located in the Outer Hebrides, was built in the 19th century as a summer residence for the Macleod of Lewis family, who held the area under the Lordship of the Isles. It is remembered as an example of Hebridean architectural heritage and the historical influence of the Macleod clan in the region.
