Sheila Fleet Jewellery - Gallery

Orkney and Caithness are famous for their natural flagstone rock which has inspired this extremely popular collection. Whilst megalithic stone structures from 3000BC have inspired the Standing Stone collection. A lovely selection of Jewellery as well as craft work by other artists. Collections of Sheila's Silver, Gold and enamel jewellery collections reflecting times past and present can be seen in her country workshop. Of her many designs, the Castle Gallery regularly stocks the following : Pentland, Runic, Standing Stones, Flagstones, Primula Scotia and the two newest designs, Cascade and Rowan.

With a passion for her island environment Sheila Fleet creates her original designs reflecting nature’s wonderful sea, sky and landscape colours. Her designs are recognised as having a unique collectable Northern style, perhaps even Scandinavian in influence as the Orkney Islands were once linked historically and geographically.

  • These are very near to the Ring of Brodgar. A small stone circle dating from the third millennium BC, originally it had 12 stones. Various traditions associated with the stones survived into the modern era and they form part of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site.

  • Obliquely opposite St Magnus Cathedral in Kirkwall is Tankerness House, Orkney's finest town house which dates from 1574.

  • Orkney is a group of 67 islands lying off the north coast of Caithness. Only about a third of the islands are inhabited. Orkney, also known as the Orkney Islands, (and sometimes incorrectly as "The Orkneys" is situated a few miles off the north-east tip of mainland Scotland.

  • Dating from the Bronze age, the Ring of Brodgar presents an almost mystical quality. There are many different ideas on the subject and you can find out more at the ring itself through various information boards. This should be No.1 on everyone's list! Originally there were 60 stones in the ring, nowadays 36 can be seen.

  • It is good to know that there is some respite from the storm at the Orkney Gallery in Anchor Buildings, Bridge Street, Kirkwall. This little gallery is hidden away and not obvious. Just before you enter the Anchor Buildings, look to your right, you will see a doorway and stairs. The gallery is up the stairs. Anchor Buildings, Bridge Street, Kirkwall.

    The Print Gallery

  • Skara Brae is a stone age village, a definite "must see" the site has been well looked after and there is a very good interpretive centre, cafe, a reproduction dwelling that you can go inside to experience the "almost" real thing, and what also impressed me was the time-line feature as you go round the site. There is a charge to go in and see it. I believe there are guided tours available too.

  • The Earl's Palace was built in 1574. Robert Stewart was the Earl of Orkney but did not manage to finish the Palace. His son Patrick completed it. There were three towers and a large open courtyard in the centre. There are lots of interpretive signs and information about the Palace throughout the ruin. Entrance is free.
