An almost detached promontory with precipitous and steeply dipping flanks at the seaward end of the headland known as Tronach Point is traditionally the site of a castle or fort. No defences are visible on the summit of the promontory, which forms a roughly level narrow strip of ground about 55m in length by a maximum of 15m in breadth (0.07ha) and, despite its inaccessible position, it is by no means certain that either attribution is correct. The only feature visible on the promontory is the grass-grown footing of a rectangular building measuring some 12m in length by 6.5m in breadth.
