Full Description
NG26SW 1.07 2368 6492.
A subrectangular building and a small enclosure are situated some 6m NE of Dun Gearymore; the building is much reduced and altered by its re-use as a fold or pen, but is well preserved at its W end, where it is set into the slope of the hill. It measures 10.5m from ENE to WSW by 3m transversely within rubble-faced walls 1.4m in thickness and 1.2m in height. What may be an out-building survives as a rectangular stance on its S side. The building lies across the end of a ditch, which may be an outwork of the broch (see NG26SW 1.11).
