Mote of the Doonans NS 395 029 NS30SE 8
A possible dun is situated on the steep-sided knoll known as the Mote of the Doonans. Around the S arc, about 1.2m below the oval summit (19m by 7.2m), there is a stony scarp 1.8m high, which forms an artificial terrace up to 2. 7m broad on the side of the
knoll; a sheep-rub at the base of the scarp reveals that it is composed of a mass of tumbled masonry from a substantial wall. On the NW there is a terrace, 3.4m broad, cut into the slope at the foot of the knoll.
