Traces of wall on the south west.

he east side, to the right of the pic is very steep.

The west flank, across the sea Jura.

The dun at Ardnackaig (Dun Beag), the shadow belongs to the ascent of Dun Mor.

The north climb.

Looking along the east wall.

The west side.

Nature plus some human stonework on the south.

The west wall turns south.

Nature has helped with some of the walls.

Outer walls, good farmland, north Kintyre in the distance.

Enter from the north.

Looking up on the east side, the dun is in the middle.

South west part, slightly more stonework visible than the previous visit.

The north wall.

Start of the south east wall heading north.

From beneath the south wall.

Stone work on the south wall.

A bit more stonework this time, Bay of Islands and in the distance Knapdale Peninsula.

Carragh a’ Ghlinne, Stone Row, is in the woods to the south, left side of pic.

Inside the south wall looking south.

The worn cups slightly more visible here, maybe.

Clear views over to Jura and the Sound Of Jura.

One of the cups, in middle of pic nearer bottom.

Some of the cups are just about visible.

This looking north.

Looking south west. Even the rucksack needed a rest from the battering it took getting here.

East side of the dun, the wee dam is very handy. Near Barnashaig Standing Stone.

The west side looking north.

Looking north east, probably more defence under the small trees / bushes.

Along the edge of the bare rock is the probable entrance.

Looking east over the best preserved part of defence.

Loch Dun Calltainn to the south.

Approaching from the east near Barnashaig Standing Stone.

If the trees weren’t there, most of the Kilmartin sites would be seen.

In the trees in front, Dunchraigaig Cairn.

Barrow, kerb cairn, 4 stones, 2 stone.

On the other side of the dyke – the local speed track.

You’d think these stones must have been used for something else.

And near the houses there is a barrow complete with the usual stone dumping.

2 stones, 4 stones, a kerb cairn, some place.

A few broken teeth in this kerb

Wherever you look there is something, a barrow near the houses.
