Boats at Aithsvoe Pier
Cunningsburgh, (Old Norse : Konungsborg = King's Broch ), is a village on the main A970 road, half way between Lerwick and Sumburgh. The village has the safest anchorage for boats in the South Mainland, at Aithsvoe, where a marina has also been recently completed.
Cunningsburgh was the birthplace of the author Adam Halcrow.
The Roskva drove ashore and wrecked near Mail on December 26th or 27th 1876, and the Grayfish wrecked on the Point of Pundsta on December 21st 1973.
