Harris, of course, is divided into northern and southern shares, which are separated by West Loch Tarbert. These times are joined by a narrow isthmus to the main settlement of Tarbert (An Tairbeart or Tairbeart in Hearadh), from which ferries sail to Uig and Skye. Harris was previously part of Inverness-shire, under age administrative divisions. In the census of 2001, Harris had a resident population usually 3601. Harris is more likely to be named the island Adru (meaning thick, stout or bulky) on Ptolemy map of the British Isles. Most of the place names on Harris comes from Old Norse. Hérað means "a type of district administrative staff" and probably derives from an amendment to an unknown Pictish / original Irish. North Harris, adjacent Lewis, contains Clisham (An Cliseam), the highest mountain in the Outer Hebrides to 799 metres. The area is sparsely populated. Beyond Tarbert, the solution is more Hushinish (Hùisinis) on the west coast. A bridge from the east coast Harris links with the island of Scalpay (Scalpaigh na Hearadh). The southern part of Harris is less mountainous, with many unspoiled, white sandy beaches of the west coast. Its main settlements are Luge (Roghadal), known for its medieval kirk San Clemente (Eaglais Chliamhain), which is under the care of Historic Scotland, is the most elaborate surviving medieval church Hebrides after Iona Abbey, and Leverburgh ( An Tòb In Hearadh or t-Òb in Hearadh) from a ferry that sails to Berneray (Beàrnaraigh in Hearadh), a 'island off the coast of North Uist (Uibhist a Tuath), which is linked by a causeway. The road that runs along the east coast of Harris (south of Tarbert Sledge) is colloquially known as the "Golden Road", as costs so much money to build, when it was built in 1897. We cross the area known as Harris Bays through the coastal city Lickisto (Liceasto) Geocrab (Geòcrab), Manish (Mànais) Flodabay (Fleòideabhagh) Ardvay (Àird Mhighe) Finsbay (Fionnsbhagh) and Lingerbay (Lingreabhagh). Of all the beaches of South Harris, Luskentyre and Scarista are regarded by many as the most spectacular. The landscape is some of the most beautiful in Scotland. From Luskentyre, the island of Taransay, where the BBC Television series Castaway 2000 was registered, have seen more clearly. At Scarista the scene is much more sports, as is often the venue for the surfing and kite buggying. Harris next to the Golf Club offers well-preserved green and astounding views, but there is no play on Sunday. Scarista is the birthplace of the author J. Finlay MacDonald. Finlay wrote about growing up on Harris in 1930 in his book: Cream Crowdie and, Corncrake and Lysander and Crotal and white paint and very lively and fun image of Hebridean life. Tarbert is the main port of the country and the capital Harris. The name comes from Norse Tarbert tairbeart significance draw-boat. Tarbert is a community of about 500 located on a narrow strip of land between Loch Tarbert between the West and Loch Tarbert. The village is the main ferry terminal, local tourist information and a number of small shops are available, including the Harris Tweed Shop dominates the main access road to the ferry terminal Cal AD Munros Mac and the general store on the main road.
