  • Whaligoe Steps I, Caithness, Scotland. Whaligoe is a small port which was prospected by Thomas Telford in 1786 during his tour of northern fishing harbours for the British Fishing Society. His judgement of the place was that it was a "terrible spot". However, undaunted, Captain David Brodie spent £8 to cut the famous 330 steps. His confidence was rewarded in 1814 with the harbour supporting 14 herring boats. During the booming 1800s fisherwoman used to haul baskets of fish up the steps before they were taken on foot to be sold in Wick, 7 miles away.
