Trench T was primarily focused on investigating Structure 27, a large and architecturally unique building at the Ness. In 2024, the full extent of the structure was finally uncovered, revealing its elaborate design and exquisite stonework.

The Ness of Brodgar is an archaeological site covering 2.5 hectares in the Heart of the Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site, in Scotland. Geophysical survey and excavations revealed a well-preserved and sophisticated complex of 5000-year-old stone buildings, unlike anything seen before in northern Europe.

Although the excavation stage is now complete, analysis of the thousands of finds, samples and records is ongoing. Please help support the project by donating to the Ness of Brodgar Trust!
