Scope and Content This image shows White Caterthun Hillfort under partial snow cover, highlighting the fort defences and possibly some of the unenclosed ring ditch settlement previously recorded here. The White Caterthun is one of the most spectacular forts in Scotland, commanding a wide sweep of country from a low hill on the NW side of Strathmore opposite Brechin. It is an Iron Age fort consisting of a double stone wall, probably timber-laced, with earthen outer defences. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
