Westerwick

Westerwick is a settlement on Mainland in Shetland, Scotland.

[1] It faces south with high cliffs on both sides of the wick.

There is a small stony beach at the head, and the surrounding land is greener with fewer rocky outcrops than the usual Shetland scene.

There are just a few houses here and the whole area makes for fine cliff walking.

Westerwick was the birthplace of Thomas Alexander Robertson, better known as the poet Vagaland.
