Also known as: Edin's Hall

Edin's Hall Broch is a 2nd-century broch near Duns in the Borders of Scotland [1]. It is one of very few brochs found in southern Scotland [1]. The broch has an external diameter of 28 metres, and an internal diameter of 17 metres [1]. The walls of the broch survive to a height of between 1.0 and 1.8 metres [1]. The interior of the broch has three intramural cells which are all approximately dumb-bell shaped [1]. Edin's Hall was "cleared" by antiquarians in the 19th century [1]. Two copper ingots were apparently found with a metal detector inside the broch in 1976 [1].
