This ancient broch is one of the best-preserved Iron Age towers in Scotland, dating back to the 1st century AD. The 12.8-meter-tall structure features a narrow entrance, a single doorway, and a series of stairs and galleries leading to the top. The broch's walls are constructed from local stone, with a distinctive "scarf" joint visible on the exterior. The site also includes the remains of a surrounding village, with several roundhouses and a street leading to the broch.
The ancient remains of roundhouses are interesting enough. But walk beyond them them to the beach, and you might be lucky enough to spot an otter! Spot the otter in the video.
