This possible broch in Kilsyth was described and illustrated by Gordon [2] and in the early 1720s was some kind of dun or broch with a wall 4.9m thick and still showing several courses of masonry, apparently standing up to a height of 3.6m. The entrance faced east and the internal circumference was 73m. There are no traces of the building now and the grid reference is an estimate [1].
