Tingon is a peninsula in the north-west of Northmavine, Shetland. It is delineated on the east by Ronas Voe, and on the west by Hamnavoe. It is also the collective name of a group of settlements on the peninsula, which were nearly all evicted as part of the Highland Clearances.
Tingon is designated as a Ramsar site, a Special Protection Area, a Special Area of Conservation and a Site of Special Scientific Interest. It forms part of the Ronas Hill – North Roe and Tingon Important Bird Area (IBA), designated as such by BirdLife International because it supports a suite of moorland-breeding birds, including red-throated loons, great skuas and merlins.[1]
At its peak, Tingon had a number of crofts; there was a croft each at Knowes, Sannions, Sumra, Ocran, Ocraness, Quidadale, Westerhouse and Aurora (pronounced 'Rora). Additionally, Southerhouse, Northerhouse, and Easterhouse each had two crofts, making a total of 14.
