About Carlungie Earth House

Carlungie Earth House is one of the largest and most complex examples of its kind in Scotland. It was accidentally discovered during ploughing in 1949. Subsequent excavations during the following two years also revealed about eight associated stone dwellings at ground level. The winding passage is one of the most complex earth house structures in Scotland. Despite the name, it is not a house, nor is it built of earth.
