Coll, Lewis

This article is about the farmland of Coll, on Lewis. For other uses, see Coll (disambiguation) Coll is a farming settlement near Stornoway, on the island of Lewis in Scotland. From 1888 to 1921, Coll and the nearby farmlands of Tong and Gress were the scene of several land raids. This made them the focus of a wider conflict between the people of Lewis, its owners, and the government. During the 19th century Lewis, like many rural areas of Scotland, became impoverished and depopulated.
