Dun is centre of image, W side
The dun is centre left… E side
Not hard to spot, this… on the other side of the road from near the entrance drive to the delightful Achamore Gardens, a ‘must see’ if you visit the island. That description can hardly be applied to the dun though. According to Canmore very little remains… a low stretch of what was the north wall and a little bit on the west side. I didn’t wander over and my life doesn’t feel the poorer. Interesting stones at a mound north of it though… perhaps I’ll look next time, touch wood. Yes, this is an island to return to. The sides of the knoll on which the dun sits are thought by the most recent surveyor to have been shaped… I thought so too.
