Postcards from Skye

mousa broch, shetland

A wee boat trip took us out to Mousa, some porpoise to start with and gorgeous sunshine made it a great trip. Excellent walking around the island and a visit to the broch "Broch of Mousa is the finest preserved example of a broch or round tower in Shetland, Scotland. It is the tallest still standing in the world and amongst the best-preserved prehistoric buildings in Europe. It is thought to have been constructed circa 100 BC, one of 570 brochs built throughout Scotland." Wikipedia
