From fields of strange stones to large mounds of rocks and great slabs of stone. Our ancestors scattered the wonders of their imagination over our landscape. Scotland is a good hunting ground. Cairns that last thousands of years.
The sunshine continued as we investigated the Neolithic sites, walked around locks, clambered up hills and left reflections in forever.
We spent a lot of time walking along the clifftops with spectacular views over the rocky cliffs and sandy bays. The island is scattered with bunkers, command centres and gun emplacements from the Second World War. There are also older fortresses dating back to Napoleonic days and Neolithic burial chambers. Then there are the heather strewn hills and wildlife.
Fabulous.
I’m drawn to those standing stones and relics of our prehistoric past. We searched a number of them out. They give me a glow. They are straight out of the past and into my consciousness.
