The well-preserved broch known as Dun Hallin, with its externally battered wall still standing 3.4m high, occupies the SE angle of a larger enclosure on the level summit of a rocky hillock. Roughly triangular in plan, this enclosure measures about 50m from E to W by a maximum of 40m transversely (0.15ha) within a wall that extended all round the margin of the summit. No inner facing-stones are visible, but runs of the outer face survive on the NW flank of the hillock, where the wall was probably about 3.3m in thickness. The position of the entrance is not known, though that of the broch faces SE. The interior to the N and W of the broch has been cultivated in low rigs.
