I've seen a few hut circles in my time, but these are the most perfect I have yet seen. They may only be a series of small walls, but what small walls! Today up to 20 of them nestle among tall bracken and heather strung along the hillside which is bright purple. All beautifully restored, it's not hard to imagine them with their conical wood and thatch roofs and all the activity of domestic life... smell that roasting pork and those frying guillemot eggs!
Park in the RSPB South Stack car park. And while you're here why not teeter along those cliff tops? We saw gannets and choughs!This post appears as part of the weblog entry Holy cow, it's Holy Island |
