View of the Lodberrie House in Lerwick, Shetland Islands, Scotland.


View of the Lodberrie House in Lerwick, Shetland Islands, Scotland. What is called The Lodberrie today is a fine group of houses and former warehouses at the southern end of Commercial Street dating back to the 18th century. It is the last example showing the original lay out of Lerwick's former lodberries. Most of the other old piers and pierhouses - especially to the north of Victoria Pier - lost their direct access to the water due to modern road developments like the Esplanade but the former harbourfront can still be detected taking a bird's eye view with Google.
