NG60 1 DUN CHOINNICH (‘Dunan Choinnich’)
NG/6829 0834
This possible broch is in Sleat, Skye, and stands at the end of a small promontory, on top of a rocky knoll; this has a precipitous face towards the sea and a lower sheer edge facing towards the land. The few signs of masonry visible suggest a circular building with a wall perhaps 3.05m (10 ft) thick and internal diameters of 12.2m (40 ft) from north-south and 10.8m (36 ft) from east-west.
