Mairi Lyndsey Campbell of Cornaigbeg presents a bouquet to Princess Anne, the Princess Royal, at the opening of the Alan Stevenson Centre at Hynish in June 1991. Hynish complex was built in the mid-1800s to support the building and running of Skerryvore Lighthouse off the west coast of Tiree. There was living accommodation for the lighthouse keepers and their families, a tower for signalling to the lighthouse, a coal store, a workshop, a smiddy and walled gardens for growing vegetables. The complex was acquired and restored by the Hebridean Trust in the late 1980s.
