View ENE of Dun na h-Airde Iron Age promontory enclosure on the shore of Loch Greshornish, Isle of Sky, Scotland, UK. The high, rocky knoll, attached to the mainland by a narrow neck, is surrounded by walling & divided into an upper (NE) & lower (SW) court by a cross-wall. A path up the rocks leads to a paved entrance passage into the upper court where there is a circular stone-built well. A gap in the cross-wall gave access to the lower court.
