near Bu of Hoy HY 2375 0523 HY20NW 21

A 'raised or artificial mound' noted in 1880 at the clifftop overlooking Burra Sound has been so mutilated by wartime buildings and a silage pit as to be beyond classification; but it seems too insubstantial to represent the remains of a broch.

RCAHMS 1989, visited September 1964.
