Pabbay, Barra, Scotland (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pabbay (Scottish Gaelic: Pabaigh, pronounced [ p apaj]) is one of the Barra Isles at the southern tip of the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. The name comes from Papey, which is Norse for "Island of the papar (Culdee)" At only 250 hectares (0.97 sq mi), it never had a large population, and, after all the able-bodied men were killed in a fierce storm while out on a fishing trip on 1 May 1897, it was abandoned in the early twentieth century.
