Dun, Loch Baravat, Galson.

On the west side of the road from Stornoway to Ness, about ½ mile north-east of Galson Lodge, is a small, shallow loch, Loch Baravat. On an islet about 70 feet from the western shore of the loch, with which it is connected by a causeway, is a mound of tumbled stones about 70 feet in diameter and rising 4 feet above the water, the remains of a dun which has been utterly destroyed.
