Open moorland to Lerwick from below the Loch of Trebister
This was 1964. The housing developments at Sound and Upper Sound were not even a dream, and Clickimin Broch stood outside the town on the side of Loch of Clickimin. Today a Leisure Centre, retail developments and housing have pushed the limit of Lerwick far into this region (as the images on Geograph and contemporary mapping show). Clickimin Broch is at the centre of this image.
