Snowy Pan Ha from the Northeast
According to our neighbours, Pan Ha' hasn't had many deep snowfalls in the forty years that they have lived here. However, in the last two weeks we have had snow lying and persisting three times, which must be some kind of record?
The name Pan Ha' comes from the old salt pans (there were eight of them) that were on the beach during the 1700's-1800's.The word Ha' is shortened from haugh, which was a term for an an area of flat ground (Pan Haugh it would have been originally)! The almost derelict houses were renovated and re-opened in 1969, by the National Trust for Scotland and sold as private houses. They are lived-in and not some sort of museum. I have annotated some of the houses with their names and dates of building when known.
