29.08.18 On the way back from Dun Mor Vaul I found a small house by the shore. About 100m W there was an obvious dun as pictured by Thelonius. I ascended the steep slope to discover two significant depressions which looked to be man-made. It could have been a small fort or settlement.
Canmore ID 21527 (go to Links) states that pottery found on Dun Beag, Vaul links it's occupation to a similar period as Dun Mor Vaul Broch.
