Exploring a 2000-Year-Old Iron Age souterrain behind my house. Souterrains are a relatively overlooked oddity, both on Raasay and around the western fringes of Europe. They are however important, fascinating structures and this particular one had sat relatively undisturbed up the hill from my house for thousands of years.
