South Howe HY 3727 3036 HY33SE 10

On the low cliff below the ruined farmstead of Brough, this site is visible on the surface as low shapeless hummocks, but in the cliff-section structures extend along a length of nearly 100m, centred on massively heavy stonework which probably represents a broch. This extensive settlement is suffering steady erosion.
