George Waterston OBE (1911–1980), the former Scottish Director of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, was a much-loved figure who had a massive and positive influence on Fair Isle.
He bought the island after World War II and co-founded the Bird Observatory in 1948, giving the isle's economy a much-needed boost.
In 1955 the National Trust for Scotland succeeded him as landlord and helped islanders to stem emigration and revitalise the community.
Next to that it has presentations on social history, music, personalities, world cultures, weapons and war, and land transport and maritime.
