From the Wikipedia article
Newtonferry (Scottish Gaelic: Port nan Long, "the harbour of the ships") is a small crofting community on the island of North Uist in the Western Isles of Scotland, at the end of the B893 road. Newtonferry is within the parish of North Uist. A number of archaeological sites have been discovered in the vicinity. A ferry used to run between Newtonferry and the neighboring island of Berneray, but no longer runs since a permanent causeway was constructed between Berneray and North Uist.
