Knap of Howar Prehistoric House, Orkney Islands, Scotland

This house is over 5,000 years old and you can still walk inside, though it has lost it's roof. Some stone furnishings remain, giving tantilising hints of the past occupants and their lifestyle. Access is free but it is located on Papa Westray, an island in the north of the Orkney Islands, north of Scotland.
