Totamore dun



Totamore Dun is a dun located at ; near the settlement of Totamore, on the Inner Hebridean island of Coll. It occupies the summit of a rocky boss, on the eastern edge of the sand-hills located 300 m north of Totamore. The dun is well protected by cliffs up to 19 m; although the approach from the north-northeast is almost level. The dun was protected by wall which would at one time have been about 3m thick; and would have run along the summit. This wall would have enclosed an area of about 25 by. The current condition of the wall is, however, very poor and only a few fragments of it survive today. The entrance is 3.3 m long by 1.2 m wide; and is bordered on the northern side by a course of large blocks. These blocks measure up to 0.7 m long and 0.4 m high. Only a single facing-stone remains on the southern side of the entrance.
