Welcome to the Iron Age. In those times, Scotland was even more individual, independent, inimitable and idiosyncratic than it is today. But this was no idyllic Garden of Eden, for it was inhabited by numerous tribes, large and small, that built more than 1,000 strongholds. From brochs, duns and hillforts, to blockhouses, crannogs and wheelhouses, many of these pre-historic strongholds are unique not only in Britain or Europe, but in the world. 'Stronghold Scotland' is your passport (or should that be pastport?) to a land 2,000 or more years ago.
