Langa, Shetland
Langa is an uninhabited island off Hildasay, in Shetland, Scotland. It is not to be confused with the numerous islands called "Linga" in Shetland.History
The name probably derives from langey, Old Norse for "long island".
The island was a separate croft during the 19th century. It had a recorded population of nine in 1841, and 13 in 1881, but was deserted in the 1890s.
