Summary
| Description |
English: The Broch of Gurness is an Iron Age broch village on the northeast coast of Mainland Orkney in Scotland overlooking Eynhallow Sound. Settlement here began sometime between 500 and 200 BC and continued until about AD 100. The site was later used in various ways.
This image shows where a door may have been fitted. There is a small round hole that could take a pivot and the large square hole could have accepted a blocking plank. There is a corresponding square hole on the other side of the entrance. |
