Dun, Loch na Buaile, Lochmaddy.

Towards the west end of Loch na Buaile, a small loch about a mile north-west of Lochmaddy, is a small flat-topped island, overgrown with a vigorous growth of rowans, honey-suckle and bracken, which is traditionally the site of a dun. Owing to the growth of vegetation no signs of building can be seen, but a submerged causeway from the south-eastern corner of the island to an intervening islet, and from that islet to the south bank of the loch, seems to confirm the tradition.
