108 | An old Picts building, discovered not many years ago, on the farm of Lingro, about 1 1/4 miles S.W. of Kirkwall, and about 1/4 mile S.E. of Lingro, on the property of A.M.S. Graeme Esq. Graemeshall. It is now in a ruinous condition, with the exception of the large outer circle, and the inner circle or tower, which is still in a fair state of preservation. The various articles discovered during its excavations have found their way to the museum of antiquaries in Edinburgh, little or no information concerning it, can be obtained in the locality. |
