Around the North Isles, from Sanday to Stronsay, Westray to Eday, and in North Ronaldsay and Papay too, farmers have been looking back at the changes through their lifetimes in recorded interviews with Dr Tom Rendall and Ailsa Seatter. The changes are widespread, from the last days of working with horses and harvesting by hand, from the sailings of the Thorfinn and the Sigurd, and from peat fires and water from the well. Sit back and listen to the voices from the isles, with photographs past and present. With Jimmy and Mary Lennie from Sanday, Irvine Miller from Stronsay, Ena Hewison from Eday, and Steven Drever from Westray.
