Loch Cnoc A’ Buidhe

Stone Fort / Dun

drewbhoy Jan 3, 2024

An incredible 83m long by 1.5m to 2m wide S shaped causeway connects the dun at Loch Cnoc A’ Buidhe, which itself is just over 13m wide. A spectacular view, south west, as I was hastily walking back to the car for a discussion about water levels at An Carra Standing stone.

Closer inspection next time.
