Links of Noltland submitted by PAB on 22nd Jun 2016. June 2016 – The team of archaeologists starting the 2016 season of excavations this week are first having to deal with the results of an Orkney winter - the winds have covered some of the site with 'new' sand, and uncovered other parts of last year's excavations.

Nucleo Megalitico, Cha de Lamas submitted by PAB on 5th Feb 2019. Nucleo Megalitico.
The group of five Mamoas, or round barrows, are located along a lane running south from the Cha de Lamas 'Agricultural colony'.
This annotated screenshot of Google Earth shows the position of the five Mamoas. There is also a dolmen further down the lane, and apparently another Mamoa 200 metres north of the houses shown.

Visited: Yes on 15th Oct 2006
Loch of Houlland submitted by pab on 15th Oct 2006. View south over the Loch of Houlland and its broch.
The next broch south in the chain around the Shetland coast was sited on the hill at Sae Breck which can be located on this picture from the square remains on the horizon of the WWll building which was built on the same site. There are no readily identifiable remnants of the Sae Breck broch, but its position can be located through the trig point shown on OS maps.

Ffynnon Wnda submitted by PAB on 4th Sep 2015. Ffynnon Wnda, in June 2011. At this stage, the well wasn't as obscured as shown in rogerkread's photos from July 2015. His photos showed it looking so sad that I looked back at my earlier ones.
It's a bit worrying if it's now being looked after, as it is such a lovely setting.
