Thanks for an in-depth look at Shetland…What is a “haa”?

[@philmorr]

Many thanks for this. A "haa" was a laird's house, and a number were built across Shetland from the 1600s onwards, of which the Tangwick Haa is one of the best examples.

@@philmorr Thanks for the clarification. Is it from possibly Norse or Gaelic?

[@philmorr]

It would be Norse rather than Gaelic

Scots Ha' a Hall.
