The 1871 census recorded more than 380 Gaelic-speaking inhabitants of Scoraig. Today it is known for its remoteness (reachable only by boat or about five miles' walk),[1] its somewhat "alternative" atmosphere,[2] organic food production, and its pioneering use of wind power. There is a primary school, which in 2015 had five pupils,[3] and in 2018, seven. Most children over the age of 14 go to Ullapool High School,[4] which because of the distance requires living there at least during the week.[5] There is postal service three times a week, and a sea-ferry and a community boat serve the settlement in addition to private boats.
