Lingerbay

Lingerbay (Lingearabhagh) in Harris, Scotland, was the subject of one of the Western Isles's longest controversies. The original 'superquarry' planning application, submitted in 1991, was to extract 600 million tonnes of anorthosite rock over a period of 60 years, from Roineabhal, an isolated area of South Harris in the Western Isles. The proposal prompted numerous objections and led to the formation of a body called the Link Quarry Group (LQG).
