Dwarfie Stane is a huge block of sandstone in which a Neolithic burial chamber has been cut.
It is believed to date from around 3000 BC.
The tomb was formerly sealed by the blocking stone which now lies in front of the entrance.

Hi!!
I only write to say that I remember a lot my visit to Hoy. I liked it very very very much. Unforgettable.
This stone is truly amazing. This giant stone stands on a valley floor surrounded by majestic mountains. It is like something from a Stanley Kubrick novel . It is quite profound and you can see why it has attracted attention for millennia. This huge stone has been hollowed out inside by people using stone tools, you would think it had been done by modern power tools it is that smooth. It is epic and should be on your bucket list
MY MAIDAN NAME IS HOY,I KNOW AI ORIGINATE FROM HERE. WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE,OUR FAMILY HAS A COAT OF ARMS FROM HOY
