One of the most archaeologically significant brochs in existance, due in no small part to the lower section of it being preserved under water.

Canmore has a lenghty entry: NMRS Number is NB13NW 3

Very close to the wheelhouse at Cnip, and the Dun Bharabhat broch. Between them, these three represent what is currently one of the top sites in the country for archaeological research.
