NR 4425 5191 The excavation at the dun and roundhouse
structures at Dun Fhinn, March – April 2018, uncovered
occupation deposits associated with both the dun and
roundhouse structures. It had previously been presumed that
the roundhouse structure was a much later addition within
the dun structure, but the excavation has shown these likely
functioned at the same time, the roundhouse probably an
integral building raised within the dun soon after the dun
was constructed. Apart from the recovery of charcoal from
all the occupation deposits, other finds were limited to a few
utilised stones and a few fragments of what may be coarse
pottery.
