Stromness, North Ronaldsay HY 7610 5130 HY75SE 2
Enormous settlement mound at least 100m by 50m has produced finds of stone, bone and bronze, and a grave containing a penannular brooch. Midden material and walls visible. Probably a very large and important late prehistoric and Norse settlement, paralleling and continuing the occupation sequence of the adjacent Broch of Burrian (HY75SE 3). Sea erosion extremely serious.
