Dun, Loch an Duin, Shader.
About 50 yards from the western shore of Loch an Duin, Shader, is a small island covered to the water's edge with a heap of tumbled stones, rising about 10 feet above the surface of the loch, the remains of a dun. It is connected with the shore by a causeway mostly submerged. Viewed from the shore, small portions of the outer wall seem to be still in position. The place under present conditions is inaccessible.
Nearer the south end of the loch and on the same side there is said to be a submerged building and causeway only once seen above water in the last 20 years (NB35SE 6).
