Broch of Gurness Broch View all content for Broch of Gurness

Visited 9.6.12 This is an excellent site and well worth a visit. The Broch is very well preserved but perhaps the best thing about the site is the preservation of the buildings just outside the Broch. The walls of these are well over head height. Despite the wind it was a sunny day and once sheltered from the wind inside the Broch it was pleasantly warm. Dafydd, Sophie and myself walked amongst the ruins whilst Karen sat in the car to read her book! There were quite a few visitors and of the H.S. guides was giving a talk but with the two little ones in tow I didn’t get change to have a listen. After visiting the Broch we had some time on the beach which we all enjoyed.
