Newtonferry ( gd, Port nan Long, "the harbour of the ships") is a small
crofting community on the island of
North Uist in the
Western Isles of
Scotland, at the end of the B893 road. Newtonferry is within the parish of North Uist.
A number of archaeological sites have been discovered in the vicinity.
A ferry used to run between Newtonferry and the neighboring island of
Berneray, but no longer runs since a permanent causeway was constructed between Berneray and North Uist.
