Shetland's 4,000-year-old historypublished at 09:27 British Summer Time 1 July 2014
The baton has just visited the historic 4,000-year-old Jarlshof settlement.
The remarkable location was discovered at the end of the 19th century when storms opened up the cliffs at the southern point of Shetland.
When the site was excavated experts found stone structures which included late Neolithic houses, a Bronze-Age village, Iron-Age broch and wheelhouses, a Norse longhouse, medieval farmstead, and a 16th-century laird's house.
