Papa Stronsay on the left, Stronsay on the right. Papa Stronsay is now
home to the monastery being created by the Transalpine Redemptorists.
The collection of houses around the harbour on Stronsay is Whitehall
village which is where we live.
"Papa" in this context indicates a connection with a monk or priest.
