Old Scatness 
Description
On the edge of the airport archaeologists have uncovered remains of and Iron Age settlement, just a mile from the site of another settlement, and within sight of three other pre-historic farmsteads. The site at the airport is still being uncovered with more being found each year. The Old Scatness visitors centre explains what has been discovered at the site and what they hope to continue to find. After watching an introductory visit you are taken on a tour of the site by people who have been involved in the digging, and then you are shown reconstruction's on the buildings as they think they would have looked, including a costumed guide telling you about how people would have lived. On a misty, windy, damp and chilly day, it's amazing how homely and comfortable the reconstruction's feel.
