Torr a'Chaisteal

Torr a'Chaisteal (or Torr a'Chaisteil) is an Iron Age fort (dun), located about 1 mile northeast of the village of Sliddery, on the Isle of Arran in Scotland ().
==Description==
Torr a'Chaisteal is situated on an isolated grassy knoll on the west coast of Arran.〔(Torr A'chaisteal Fort ), Historic Scotland, accessed 2 May 2014〕
It was a fortified residence, or dun, of a type common across western Scotland in the later Iron Age.〔 A similar structure can be seen at Kilpatrick Dun 2.5 miles to the north.〔(Kilpatrick Dun (or Cashel) ), Historic Scotland, accessed 2 May 2014〕 The turf-covered walls are 0.5 metres high and have an average width of 4 metres. The walls are formed of large sandstone boulders, enclosing an area with a diameter of around 7 metres.〔 A short stretch of wall lies beside the dun to the east, while on the landward approach is a substantial earthwork that may have formed an outer defence.〔
Antiquarian excavations in the 19th century uncovered human and animal bones, shells, the top stone of a quern, and pieces of haematite iron.〔
