Tour Scotland short 4K Spring travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a Kilt and Sporran and walking on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to a Broch on the West Coast of the Shetland Islands, Britain, United Kingdom. The word broch is derived from Lowland Scots brough, meaning, among other things, fort. A broch is an Iron Age drystone hollow walled structure of a type found only in Scotland. Brochs include some of the most sophisticated examples of drystone architecture ever created, and belong to the classification " complex Atlantic Roundhouse " devised by Scottish archaeologists. As late as the 1930s, Culswick was a vigorous enough community to support a regular bus service into Lerwick. However, like many remote crofting outposts in Shetland, the area has suffered significant depopulation over the last century. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome. The date for astronomical Spring is 20th March, ending on 21st June
