Shawbost Norse Mill and Kiln

Shawbost Norse Mill and Kiln lies to the north of the hotel and is a 15 minute drive away.  The Mill and Kiln are a short walk from the main A858 near Shawbost next to Loch Roinavat.   They are a renovated pair of thatched buildings used in past times to process barley grain into meal.
The buildings give a very rare glimpse into the Scandinavian past of Lewis. The mill was powered by water from the stream from the nearby Loch Roinavat.
