Old Photograph Broch of Gurness Orkney Scotland

Old photograph of Broch of Gurness, Orkney Islands, Scotland. The Broch of Gurness is an Iron Age broch village on the northwest coast of Mainland Orkney overlooking Eynhallow Sound. Pieces of a Roman amphora dating to before 60 AD were found here, lending weight to the record that a " King of Orkney " submitted to Emperor Claudius at Colchester in 43 AD.
