As described, definately a broch, both wall faces visible in

parts, about 30 degrees of total arc survives. Wall is about

1.5m high (inner face) under the marker carin, but may be partly

rebuilt here to support cairn. Sea erosion will eventually

destroy this site, but in the short term it is protected by

rugged rocky outcrops and a storm-beach of large stones.
