Tirefour Castle On Visit To Island Of Lismore Inner Hebrides Scotland

Tour Scotland travel video, with Scottish music, of Tirefour Castle on ancestry visit to the East Coast of the Island of Lismore in the Inner Hebrides. Tirefour Castle, or Tirefour Broch, also spelled Tirfuir and Tirrefour, is an Iron Age broch located North of Achnacroish. In clear weather Ben Nevis can be seen to the north, Ben Cruachan to the east and the Paps of Jura to the South. There is a steep slope on the northwest side and on the southeast side. The latter slope turns into a rolling plateau that ends in a steep cliff. The broch was probably built in the late Iron Age and was inhabited during the Roman era. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
