This is the second of nine Orkney Stories after my revisit to Orkney mainland in October last year following a ten year absence. Nowhere is the island's ancient self more more powerfully felt than at it's neolithic sites. This is about the 5000 year old village of Skara Brae located at the Bay of Skaill and only discovered in 1850 after a great storm uncovered it from the sand dunes. It is older than the Great Pyramids and that sense of time is powerful.

Another in my Orkney series capturing the mystery of the Neolithic village of Skara Brae that was buried by a storm and later exposed by another storm.
