On top of the dun wall, looking south east.
The sheepfolds used the stones of the dun, south side.
The lower stones are dun, medieval sheepfolds have been built on top.
The northern stones of the circle which is on the west bank of the loch.
Looking north west. Head west you’ll find the roundhouses.
Note how low the water is in the loch, this would prove an important factor for some prehistoric sites.
The mound that housed a dun reappears, this land is often bog.
Looks like a lintel, dig down time.
Well constructed, its a safe bet most of the mounds have something in them.
Looking south
Another roundhouse emerging.
If you walk north west from the three roundhouses you’ll see this.
The three roundhouses.
The entrance to the south roundhouse.
Hut 2 has superb stonework
The dry stane building was excellent.
Interesting bowl type feature, to me at least, at the entrance of the 2nd roundhouse.
The figure of 8.
The roundhouse nearest the path.
Looking straight east, with four cairns in the area I looked at the rock plates, no cup marks that I could see.
Looking straight north, the causeway to the left of the photo.
Looking west, A & B make their way over fairly boggy ground.
From the north side looking towards Ben Scrien, stunning views at the top.
Looking north east, the water dividing South Uist and Eriskay, Caolas Eirisgeigh.
