The Stack
Taken at Staxigoe Harbour., near Wick, Caithness, Scotland on a beautiful day
Staxigoe is from the Norse 'gja or geo' meaning inlet and 'stakkr' meaning stack or rock, thus inlet of the stack. It is a pretty little harbour, dating back to at least 1878, which was when the harbour was to be found on the first Ordnance Survey Map, although it is a natural harbour and there are suggestions the harbour itself could date back to the 1600s. It was once the largest herring salting stations in Europe.
I have added a Gene Clark song called 'Rough and Rocky' as my link

Ecobird club has replied to Annemarie clubJust a quick question ... dating back to at least 1878 ... Are you sure? That seems far too recent for anything described as '... back to at least ...'!! If this was in America, it would make perfect sense!
Ecobird club has replied to Andy Rodker clubThe name itself, from the Norse meaning inlet of the stack also suggests to me there may have been Norwegian settlers here way back further than this
My apologies for the confusion

Ecobird club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne clubStaxigoe must have been very different in the herring salting days, but now it has found a new lease of life as a sleepy and pretty little harbour.
