Social Housing

The latest batch of housing being built in Lerwick is nearly complete

Good shot, like the way your houses look different from ours on the mainland.

Nice composition - looks almost Norwegian -but I suppose you are closer to Norway than to most of UK!

[jo]

lovely gentle light, at first I thought it was a shot of Iceland! I am now wondering what is closer to you.., London or Iceland?

[Danksound]

Very Nordic looking housing!!

[Kitty Hawke]

Yes....does look Norwegian....

[regularguy]

I like the colors. What does "social housing" mean?

[Richard Lewis]

@regularguy owned by local authorities or, as in this case, housing associations for rent.

[regularguy]

Okay, I now understand. Thank you.

[Richard Lewis]

@jokristina east coast of Iceland will be closer but London closer than Reykjavik.

[Richard Lewis]

@shepherdman Aberdeen and Bergen are about the same distance from Lerwick.

[Tunia McClure]

Love the bright colors of red and blue.

[LadyFindhorn]

Looks a bit like the houses outside Scalloway

[Richard Lewis]

@ladyfindhorn Yes they are and the same as down where I am in Sandwick. Tried and trusted design
