Mousa Broch - the best preserved broch in existence. Located on the western shore of the Island of Mousa in the Shetland Isles, the Iron Age tower was probably constructed in around 100 BC. 📸 My own. #WallsOnWednesday #Prehistory #MousaBroch #Shetland
These structures are amazing! That interior staircase is just mind boggling!
A 100 BC and still in the Iron Age and the UK dared to call others „barbarians“
Incredible!
Always wanted to see this in person. I don't think I'll make it, so very cool to see pics!
One day I'll get there...
That's in remarkable condition for 2000 years old
From vague memory it was fairly extensively "repaired" in the 20th century. Don't get me wrong, still an amazing site (visited it years ago) but it's not entirely as was - so to speak
Ah, that makes sense from the look of it
Go see it. Its fascinating and great in its setting.
