NN64NW 2 6208 4788.
(NN 6208 4788) The site of a tower (Watson is describing circular forts - or duns - in central Perthshire), of which the foundations existed within living memory, is occupied by the U F Manse at Camas Bhracuinn.
W J Watson 1913
There are now no remains of this structure visible, but the present occupier pointed out several large stones in his garden wall which he believes are from the site. If it had been similar to the other Glen Lyon "duns", then it is probable that it was a defended homestead (c/f NN44SE 7).
