About

North Ronaldsay (Scots pronunciation: [nɒrθ ˈrɒnəltsiː], also [nɒrθ ˈrɒnəldziː] north-RON-əlt-see) is the northernmost island in the Orkney archipelago of Scotland. With an area of 690 hectares (2.7 sq mi), it is the fourteenth-largest. It is mentioned in the Orkneyinga saga; in modern times it is known for its historic lighthouse, migratory bird life and unusual breed of sheep.
