NO 66749 59951 (Canmore ID: 219629) A fourth season of excavation was carried out, 12–19 August 2017, as part of the National Trust for Scotland Trail Blazer young person volunteer scheme. The excavation uncovered further evidence of substantial stone-built structures in the form of in situ foundations of a possible stair tower in an area adjacent to the medieval Chapel of Dun and believed to be the remains of the Erskine Castle of Dun.
