Discovered in 2010, The Tomb of the Otters is a 5000 year old neolithic tomb. Unique in its construction and contents, it is a truly one of a kind site.
Only found in September 2010, The Tomb of the Otters provides a unique opportunity to experience the reality of a Neolithic burial Site.
A large chambered tomb dug into hard bedrock, the tomb gets its name from a large amount of Otter Spraint and bones found within various parts of the tomb. Uniquely, many chambers remain unexcavated, the bodies still preserved in the state they were left over 5000 years ago.
