Dun an Sticir (Scottish Gaelic: Dùn an Sticir [ˈt̪un əɲ ˈʃtʲiçkʲɪɾʲ]) is an Iron Age broch situated approximately 9.5 kilometers north of Lochmaddy in a loch on North Uist in the Scottish Outer Hebrides.
[3] Dun an Sticir was probably built in the Iron Age in the period between 100 BC and 100 AD, like most brochs.
[4] In the Middle Ages the broch was converted into a rectangular hall,[3][4] or small tower.
[4] The causeway from the north side of the loch to Eilean na Mi-Chomhairle was widened to 3 meters,[2] so that carts could get to the island.
[2] In 1586 he hatched a plan to murder his cousin, Donald Gorm, 8th Chief of the Macdonalds of Sleat.
A wide stone causeway leads from the north to the island of Eilean na Mi-Chomhairle.
The entrances are 1.1 metres wide, located in the northwest and southwest of the rectangular space.
