Picts’ house

Isaac Kremer/ September 9, 2018/ / 0 comments

A house, circular in plan, of conical shape, with an opening at the top; large stones, without cement, were employed in its construction. The internal area was often considerably less in diameter than the thickness of the wall, within which were sometimes staircases and small cell-like rooms. Constructed by the Picts who formerly inhabited the highlands of Scotland and some of the islands of Scotland. (Harris, 1977)
