Possible broch in Halkirk, Caithness, consisting of a low, circular, grass-covered mound 24.0m in diameter which Swanson describes as a ring [2]. No traces of structures can be seen but there has been an outer defensive bank running from north-west to north and a hollow way on the north side may be the entrance. The plan [2] shows little.
