As reported in the Banner on Saturday 28 July,volunteers from Arran and the mainland came together to help build a replica Bronze Age roundhouse in Brodick Country Park.
In just six days the volunteers achieved an incredible amount and were able to assemble the wooden skeleton of a roundhouse,which was once a common type of dwelling across the country over 4,000 years ago.
The roundhouse,located on the park’s Wilma’s Walk,is part of the Arran Archaeology Project,a two-year joint venture between Arran Arts Resource and the National Trust for Scotland Ranger Service.
