Summary



DUN BORAIGE MOR

Euan W. MacKie

NL946476. Though extremely dilapidated and overgrown with turf, the outline of this fort, which stands on a knoll, can be traced together with possible signs of a mural gallery on the northeast. This suggests that the fort Is allied to the ground-galleried brochs, such as Dun Mor Vaul, but the walls are abnormally thin, about 10 feet, when compared with the overall diameter of about 60 feet.
