In 1934 a small book with the title Norse Building Customs in the Scottish Isles was published by the Danish architect and archaeologist Aage Roussell of the National Museum of Denmark. The book was based on material he had recorded during a visit to the Western and Northern Isles in 1931. The article describes Roussell’s visit to Shetland and puts it into context.
