Inshlampie is a broch situated in Sutherland in the Scottish Highlands, dating to the Iron Age period. The monument consists of a hollow-walled circular stone tower characteristic of the broch tradition of northern Scotland, a distinctive architectural form that flourished during the later Iron Age. Brochs served multiple functions within Iron Age society, likely combining defensive, residential, and prestige functions within their communities. The structure remains an important archaeological record of Iron Age settlement patterns and construction techniques in the far north of Scotland.
