Looking south west.

Looking south, decent footprint.

From the north west.

Looking south to Eriskay, and beyond Barra.

Looking east, the possible outline of the chamber.

Not much stonework to be seen.

Following the stone to the north east.

Why did they built that shelter – there is an awful lot of room!

As well as ducks, swans seem to be taking over the dun.

Early morning in Daliburgh.

A wee bit of zoom, reveals a cairn of sorts plus loads of ducks.

Slightly different angle looking north west, plus the sun appeared.

The dun is still occupied.

The larger loch Loch Dun Na Cille has a small neighbour called Loch Dunanduichal, which houses the dun of the same name. This taken from the slip of land between the two lochs.

Taken from the south west.

Looking south.

Centre of the dun looking west.

South side.

North side of the dun.

The causeway appears to be in a better condition than the house.

From half way across the causeway.

A lovely causeway leads to the dun.

Looking south west.

The smaller of the two crannogs, Easabhal stands behind.

A beautiful place and another crannog nearby.

A small headland hides the causeway.

Taken from further west.

Early morning calm surrounds the causeway leading to the crannog.

Still a great site, probably needs a wee bit of TLC.

The hut circle, lawn mower required.

The ever impressive Kilvaxter.

Taken from the west, south of the loch after crossing the canal.

Shows the curve of the wall.

The view, same then, same now.

The end of the wall at the east.

From the top, looking south

On top of the wall.

Looking west, also the end of the Viking Canal as it reaches open water.

The Cuillins have a hat.

Adequate defence here.

Part of the near ground level gallery.

Not much need for defence here.

South the wall, looking east to Soay.

Island of Soay in the distance.

Truly stunning site.

Once you climb up from the canal, you’ll see this.

Quick look around, catch up with A & B at the naust / canal, then the dun.

Nearby is the chamber cairn, reasonably nearby is a cave and in the distance the dun.
