Eilean Dòmhnuill

Armit identifies the islet of Eilean Dòmhnuill, Loch Olabhat on North Uist, Scotland as what may be the earliest crannog. Unstan ware pottery found there suggests a Neolithic period date of 3200-2800 BC. A surrounding timber screen and the turf-walled houses seem to have been repeatedly taken down and rebuilt, and in the final phase two oblong stone-footed structures bear a resemblance to Knap of Howar on Papa Westray, Orkney.

Located at 57.6497, -7.45528 (Lat. / Lng.), about 2 miles away.

Scolpaig Tower

Scolpaig Tower (also known as Dùn Scolpaig or MacLeod’s Folly) is a Georgian folly located near the village of Scolpaig on the Isle of North Uist in the Outer Hebrides. The name likely derives from the Old Norse scolpvik, or 'Scolp Bay' (a scolp being a large Hebridean vessel, probably relating to the nearby bay where such boats may have landed). It was built in about 1830 by Dr Alexander MacLeod, who was the factor of the North Uist estate.

Located at 57.6461, -7.48149 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
