About Quoyness

Quoyness chambered cairn, a Neolithic burial monument on Sanday island in Orkney, dates back to around 3000 BC and resembles the design of Maeshowe. Excavations in 1867 and the early 1950s revealed skeletal remains and led to partial restoration, showcasing its various construction phases. Now a scheduled monument under the care of Historic Environment Scotland, Quoyness offers valuable insights into the region's prehistoric heritage, making it a significant site for planning applications related to conservation and heritage management in the area.
