Castle Bloody

Castle Bloody

Castle Bloody is a prehistoric feature on the island of Shapinsay, Orkney, Scotland. Hogan observes that while the feature is marked as a chambered mound [United Kingdom Ordnance Survey Map Landranger Map, Orkney Mainland, 1:50,000 scale, 2002] on the UK Ordnance Survey map, the structure is more properly and specifically classified as a souterrain or earth house. [ [http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=17936 C.M. Hogan, "Castle Bloody", The Megalithic Portal, ed. A. Burnham, Nov 6, 2007] ] Slightly to the north is located the ruined historic Linton Chapel.
