Marywell, Orkney Islands

Brough Farm, Rousay

Uploader's Comments

Not far from the Broch and Midhowe chambered cairn on Rousay Island, Orkney. Its interest to me was the fairly well preserved grain drying kiln at one end of the ruined building (on the right in the picture). The information board at the site mentions that records show the farm was occupied back in the 14th century by the Craigie family and descendants were there until 1859!
