Full Description

NG51NE 17 561 171

To the NW of Dun Ringill (NG51NE 4) are settlement remains comprising field banks, run-rig and houses. Though the form and construction of many of the houses suggest an 18th- or 19th-century date, some (shown on plan by Miket and Roberts) may be contemporary with the re-occupation of Dun Ringill in the medieval period.
