I've mixed feelings about the location but wont knock it til I've tried it.

You mean bolting in that location? Sure, I think everybody does; that's why it's barely been developed. Grid bolting just seems inappropriate, but the alternative of some Czech-style ground-up ring bolting-on-skyhooks ethic clearly doesn't have legs either. Not dissimilar to Nesscliffe in the eighties but without the easy top-roping option...

It was an incredible place to be a kid, we actually lived in Cuaig, about 10 miles north on the coast road so the bustling metropolis of Applecross was quite exciting to me back then.

Very commendable if it was ground up! Il have to pack my hand drill.

This undeveloped crag? 

Fuck me if that's even half-way solid I'd go back up to Scotland just for that. Love the aesthetics in the buttress picture.

better pic, showing more of what's there.

If his flickr doesn't get you psyched for the NW of Scotland, nothing will. Not looked at it in a while.

Send in the grid bolters.

Eagles Breage is the crag-

The Boulders and Dave Mac's Screapadale Prow are below this and round the corner. there is also a box canyon with a rare limestone flake hidden away near the top of the crag.
It's worth noting that this location is Not straightforward to get to{but still worth it}
I lived and worked on Raasay for a few seasons about 15 years ago and have been back regularly over the years to climb/snorkle/camp/walk etc. It is a true island Gem.

If you do manage to pop over make sure you stop off at Raasay Outdoor Center/Dolphin cafe for Beer/coffee. Dave Croy will also have specific info on climbs + some quality history/banter

Enjoy

Christ, is Davie still there
I worked on the island about 30 years ago  and him and Lyn Rowe were running the outdoor centre.
I wouldn't get too excited about the boulders, a mixture of some ok but a lot are made of oatcakes. Some impressive geology though and as Rob says, well worth a visit.Not least for the distillery....
Also the summit of Dun Caan is stunning viewpoint for the Cuillin.
