The Unst Heritage Centre owes its existence to the foresight and effort of the original Unst History Group.
Realising that a way of life linked to the old methods of crofting and fishing was disappearing, they organised an exhibition of old artefacts in the Haroldswick Hall.
The response was encouraging, making visitors realise that many similar items had already been cast aside.
A further exhibition was organised to coincide with the 1985 ‘Hamefaring’.
