Appnag Tulloch Broch (Forse House)

A grassy mound on a rocky outcrop makes for a dramatic setting, with clear line of sight to a number of other brochs. It is sited in a field on the Forse estate, so find parking around Forse and do a little walking. There is no need to climb fences or stone dykes as there are good gates on the estate, you just need to look for them and find them.

Disclaimer: Some brochs were built with military defensive purpose, and as such can be situated in extremely dangerous areas, such as on the edge of cliffs and ravines. Additionally, these are Iron Age structures, most of them in ruins, and they are extremely hazardous, with crumbling stone walls and hidden chambers. Existing walls, lintels, and passages could collapse at any time. The information here is provided free but it is your responsibility to ensure its accuracy, ensure your own safety, and acquire permissions for access where necessary. Accessing brochs is done entirely at your own risk.
