#broch — Public Fediverse posts

@Heinz Ich kann das sehr gut nachvollziehen. @giesbert schrieb heute davon, ob Brochs "Schlafwandler" nicht neue Aktualität bekämen. In Bezug auf den Klimawandel würde ich das absolut bestätigen: Die Menschen scheinen keine Vorstellung von dem Ausmaß der Katastrophe zu haben, die wir uns da einhandeln. Wenn nicht 1 Million, sondern eine Milliarde Menschen nach Europa kommen. Oder der Amoc versiegt. Wir aber tun so, als ob das eine Wetteranomalie wäre, 1/3

An unusual example of a lowland broch. The elusive Tappoch (or Torwood) Broch is located near Denny in central Scotland, concealed within a dense (though now partly cleared) forest. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/denny/tappochbroch/index.html

Lunchtime run.

Had to visit the @WedaleBooks, so difficult 😆 so we made a virtue of a necessity and did the run up to the Broch and had to seek sustenance in The Wild Hare Cafe. 8k but steep, mainly tracks.

For #TravelThursday here's the Broch of Clickimin near Lerwick on Shetland which we looked around in 2024. It can be dated to at least the early Iron Age although its actual function, like all brochs, is not clear. Farmsteads, status symbols, and fortifications all have supporters but also those who disagree. Archaeologists, eh? What are they like?

Dun Beag is one of the best preserved brochs and a good example of a broch tower. 

Brochs only appear in Scotland. They are dry stone structures formed of two concentric walls with a narrow entrance passage. Stone stairs ran between the walls to provide access, perhaps to upper floors, and the top.

Scotland’s brochs were built in the Iron Age, first emerging about 2,300 years ago. Their use continued until the middle of the first millennium CE.

The Broch of Gurness, the wonderfully evocative remains of an Iron Age broch and village overlooking Eynhallow Sound on Orkney's West Mainland. It was built as a planned settlement some time before 200BC. The site was excavated in 1929. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/westmainland/brochofgurness/index.html

The amazingly well preserved Clickimin Broch on the south-west edge of Lerwick in Shetland. The site was first occupied around three thousand years ago, with the main structure dating back around two thousand years.
