Since 2003, the excavation of a huge Neolithic complex, in the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site, has revealed a massive complex of monumental Neolithic buildings along with associated “artwork”, pottery, bones and stone tools.
We are looking into the possibility of excavating and of opening the site in 2021 BUT must consider what the Scottish Government, Orkney Islands Council, the University of the Highlands and Islands and our Archaeology Institute permit. We must also consider what the community we are part of here in Orkney wants.
Keep watching our website and we’ll let you know our plans as soon as we know them ourselves.
In recognition that this business has confirmed that they have followed government and industry COVID-19 guidelines, ensuring processes are in place to maintain cleanliness and aid social/physical distancing.
