(NC 578 489) An Caisteal - the castle or the fort - is the highest pinnacle of Ben Lyal, 2504ft, and bears the ruins of a building called Caisteal na Druidhich, the druid's castle.
J Mackay 1892.
This site was not investigated, but observation from the ground suggests that it is most unlikely a fort existed here.
