| Description | |
| The severely denuded remains of a dun occupy the summit of a hill 850m NNE of Barrackan; a cliff forms the E side of the site, and a slight terrace extends to the N and NW. The wall, which has been reduced to a band of rubble about 2.5m thick with only a few outer and inner facing stones surviving, encloses a featureless area measuring 17m by 11m. The entrance was probably situated on the NNE. At a point some 8m to the N, there is a small shelter of recent date. | |
