I visited when they were digging. I'm not sure if the dig is still in progress. The stonework SERF had revealed was in stunning nick!

Are you sure about the broch being in the fort at Jackschairs Wood George? Because on Google maps that looks rather, well, woody, and in the excavation photos it doesn't.

On the Northlight Heritage website it says that the broch is actually at the Castle Craig fort, presumably this one?
