Lerwick is the chief town of the Shetland archipelago and the most northerly town in Great Britain. The name comes from Old Norse Leirvk, meaning ‘muddy bay’. The town is situated on a fine natural harbour on Bressay Sound on the eastern coast of Shetland Mainland. The town is nearly equidistant from Torshavn/Faroe Islands to the west (356km), and Bergen/Norway to the east (356km). Aberdeen (some 350km) to the south on the Scottish Mainland is the port of call for the Shetland lifeline ferry service.

Lerwick scarcely existed until the early 17th century. The ness on which it stands belonged to the proprietors of the large township of Soond to the south of it. They used it for grazing. A few huts sprang up there when Dutch fisherman began to come to Bressay Sound in the late 16th century. On two occasions the court at Scalloway moved to suppress the new settlement. The building of Fort Charlotte in its first incarnation gave a boost to Lerwick, and by the end of the century a good few merchants were based there.

Lerwick continued as a fishing village to the beginning of the 19th century, when the Napoleonic Wars resulted in another building spurt. Until then the settlement stretched mainly along its front road (today’s Commercial Street) which runs from north to south, from Fort Charlotte via Market Cross onto The Lodberries a group of Lerwick’s oldest buildings. In 1818 Lerwick became a Burgh of Barony and in 1833 a Police Burgh. Both events and the resulting status as a kind of self governing local authority laid the foundation of the prosperous development of the modern town of Lerwick.
