Geograph - photograph every grid square

taken 16 years ago, near to Sultigeo, Mainland, Orkney Islands, Scotland

Maeshowe, Neolithic Orkney. (The Inside)

The corbelled chamber is quite small in comparison to the mound’s external dimensions. This is because further chambers radiate from the inside and which are quite long. Some of the stone slabs used in this construction weigh up to forty tonnes.
