The site is a Complex Atlantic Roundhouse in the modern terminology and is now considered to meet the criteria to be classified as a Broch rather than a Dun. When initially examined by the Ordnance Survey it had not been excavated and the fact that surveyors were looking at the 1st floor of the site rather than the ground floor meant that the details of layout and organisation of the site were not appreciated at that time.
