Summary
| Description |
With the Bass Rock in the background to the left, and the Isle of May behind to the right. A mid 14th century fortification the site itself is much older. The name Dentaloune recorded circa 1300 suggests a pre 7th century Anglian conquest Brittonic name in Din- (fort) as in Dunbar (Dynbaer 680AD), Edinburgh (Din Eidyn), and Bamburgh (Din Guardi). These names belong to a period in history when a largely forgotten British tribe called the Votadini (Gododdin) controlled what is now south east Scotland and north east England. |
