A preferred site has been identified as a possible location for a visitor centre dedicated to St Kilda.

Mangursta, in Uig on the Western Isles, is about 40 miles across the sea from the internationally-protected island archipelago.

Western Isles Council - Comhairle nan Eilean Siar - has ruled out building on St Kilda because of difficulties reaching it.

Cleitreval in North Uist and Leverburgh in Harris were also considered.

Well done Uig! Should give them plenty to do at the Comann Eachdraidh http://www.ceuig.com
