Part of the Ring of Brodgar stone circle, superbly located between the Loch of Stenness and the Loch of Harray on Orkney's West Mainland. When erected, over 4,000 years ago, 60 stones stood here: now there are 36. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/westmainland/ringofbrodgar/index.html

There's nowhere quite like Stromness in Orkney. It stretches for over a mile along the shore of Hamnavoe, an inlet of Scapa Flow. The core of the town is a main street that twists and turns between the shoreline and the hillside behind. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/stromness/stromness/index.html

The magical Stones of Stenness circle and henge on Orkney's West Mainland, with the mountains of Hoy in the distance. The stones you see today are part of a ring of 12 tall stones and a surrounding ditch from between 3000BC and 2500BC.
