Picture of the start of the construction of a hotel, a hole in the ground for the foundationsAn old picture from the start of the project to rebuild the Islay Hotel in Port Ellen. This is from the start of the project, shortly after the old building had been demolished. Just a gaping hole in the ground where the foundations were being put into place. The project has since been completed and the hotel has successfully reopened.
