It looks similar but is quite a long way from there.

Is it some tombs in Scotland, maybe near a statue of a dog?
It is simpler than it looks.

Lime kilns?

Its last use can be guessed from the rows of small niches that can be seen through the bars. It's a very solid structure and may have had other uses previously.

No.

Llanberis??  Background not rocky enough though.

Both those are in the wrong country, though Wales is closer.

Not Scotland either.

If I was to post the photo I took when I was looking in the other direction, someone would get it straight away.
