About

The East Mainland, South Ronaldsay and Burray ward comprises a distinct southeastern portion of the Orkney archipelago. It is connected by the Churchill Barriers, a series of causeways built during World War II that link the Mainland to the islands of Burray and South Ronaldsay. This area is characterised by agricultural land, coastal cliffs, and sheltered bays. The landscape includes the prominent headland of St Peter's Pool and the tidal island known as the Lamb Holm.

The ward contains several significant historical sites, including the Italian Chapel, constructed from Nissen huts by prisoners of war. The Tomb of the Eagles, a Neolithic chambered cairn, is located on South Ronaldsay. Economic activity is centred on farming, fishing, and some small-scale industry. The village of St Margaret's Hope on South Ronaldsay serves as a key settlement and ferry terminal for connections to the Scottish mainland.
