A view of the Port Ellen Maltings from the ferry arriving on Islay. Two visiting sailing yachts are moored in the bay. Also visible the old warehouses and remaining buildings of the long closed Port Ellen distillery. This is an older picture, the low chimneys have since been replaced by a much higher one to reduce the smoke going into the surrounding houses.
