In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Howmore like this:
Howmore, a village and a registration district in the N of South Uist parish, Outer Hebrides, Inverness-shire. The village stands on the W coast of South Uist island, 7 miles S of the north-western extremity of that island, and 36 SSW of Lochmaddy, under which it has a post and telegraph office. The registration district is the central one of three districts into which South Uist parish is divided.
Howmore is now part of NA H EILEANAN AN IAR Council. Click here for graphs and data of how NA H EILEANAN AN IAR has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Howmore itself, go to Statistics.
