Harris

Part of the Outer Hebrides, Western Isles, Scotland; area 500 sq km/193 sq mi; population (2001) 3,600. It is joined to Lewis by a narrow isthmus. Harris tweed cloths are produced here.

Harris is mountainous in the north. The east coast of Harris is rocky, unlike the western coast with its fine shell sand beaches. Tarbert is the main settlement and terminal for car ferries from Skye and North Uist.

An t'Ob on the south coast was renamed Leverburgh on the death of Lord Leverhulme in 1925. He had a grand economic plan to develop the town into a major fishing port. On his death, the scheme foundered.
