Birsay
Birsay is a parish in the North West corner of The Mainland of Orkney. Almost all the land in the parish is devoted to agriculture; mainly grass land used to rear beef cattle.
The main area of interest in the parish is the Brough of Birsay and nearby hamlet of The Palace. The hamlet takes its name from the now ruined Earl's Palace which lies at the northern end of the hamlet.
