Pictures and credits

There are no photographs on this site.

Every picture here (the broch cut in half, the three kinds of broch site, the way in from above, the wheelhouse, the broch on an island, the roundhouse, the logo, the favicon and the share image) is our own original, simplified drawing. They are not reconstructions or scale plans, and they are not traced or copied from any plan, map, scan, guidebook, museum image or photograph. Only the labelled parts come from the sourced facts in each caption.

Useless the eraser is the network’s own mascot. Fonts: Bricolage Grotesque, Newsreader and Kalam (SIL Open Font Licence), served from this site.

All pictures are our own simplified drawings: not reconstructions, not scale plans, and not copied from any site plan, map, guidebook, scan or photograph.
