Edin's Hall Broch (also Edinshall Broch; Odin's Hall Broch) is a 2nd-century broch near Duns in the Borders of Scotland. It is one of very few brochs found in southern Scotland.〔Armit, I. (2003) ''Towers in the North: The Brochs of Scotland''. Stroud. Tempus. ISBN 0-7524-1932-3 pp119-132.〕 It is roughly 28 metres in diameter. ==Name== In the late 18th century this site was called "Wooden's Hall or Castle" (Woden the chief god from Anglo-Saxon mythology).〔John R. Baldwin (1985) ''Lothian and the Borders'', page 132. RCAHMS.〕 Its later name change apparently recalls the legend of the three-headed giant The Red Ettin known in tales and ballads.〔
