    • St Kilda has the largest colony of gannets in the world and the largest colony of fulmars in the British Isles
    • St Kilda has one of the most extensive groups of vernacular building remains in Britain. The layout of the 19th-century village remains to this day, and over 1,400 stone-built cleitean for storing food and fuel are scattered all over the islands, and even on the sea stacs
    • Before the inhabitants left in 1930 it was the most remotely inhabited island in Britain

    New St Kilda WHS Management Plan – public consultation in 2009
    The Trust is writing a new Management Plan for St Kilda and will be seeking input from all stakeholders during the preparation of the Plan. The first of two public consultations had been planned for the end of 2008 and start of 2009. However, this initial consultation will now take place later in 2009. News of actual dates will be posted on the website in due course. We look forward to hearing your opinions on a number of issues later in the New Year.

    St Kilda is the most awe-inspiring archipelago in the British Isles. Towering out of the storm-tossed waters of the Atlantic Ocean, its cliffs clamour with the cries of a million seabirds. MORE>
