Scope and Content Map of Boreray, St Kilda Boreray, to the north of Hirta, is the one of the lesser islands of the St Kilda chain. By the late 19th century, the St Kildans' visited the island three times a year: in spring to collect eggs; in summer for sheering, and in winter to catch gannets. The sheep had to be counted during the spring visit because the winter storms usually blew some of them into the sea. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
