The Peat Road: is a narrow, single track road that twists & turns with few passing places & is the “short cut” between Finsbay & Leverburgh in South Harris, one of the islands of the Outer Hebrides in Scotland. The Peat Road winds along the shores of Loch Langabhat & over the moor, past the peat beds, where the crofters cut & stack the peat. Once dried, it is transported to their croft houses & used as fuel.
