Summary



DUN MOR A’ CHAOLAIS

Euan W. MacKie

NM083477. This is another very dilapidated and turf-grown site of which little more than the irregularly circular outline can be made out. It stands on a hilltop. A probable mural cell on the south-east and traces of an entrance passage with a guard cell (which has been reconstructed in modern times) on the north-west suggest that the structure is a broch. There are signs of an outer rampart.
