View NE of Dun na Maigh Iron Age broch situated on the N end of a ridge overlooking the Kyle of Tongue, Sutherland, Scotland, UK. Much of the broch has collapsed & the interior is full of tumble, but a cell survives within the double wall & a staircase leading up to a first floor gallery. The entrance passage on the E (R) has two sets of checks for two wooden doors with a guard cell between them. On the W the drop is precipitous, the easier N & S approaches are guarded by an outwork wall. The Kinloch River is to the E.
