Cnoc an t-Simileir is a depopulated settlement located 360 metres south-east of Treshnish on the Isle of Mull in Argyllshire, Scotland. The site represents a former inhabited area that was abandoned in the post-medieval or early modern period, reflecting the broader patterns of settlement change and population movement that characterised the Scottish Hebrides. The settlement's name, derived from Scottish Gaelic, suggests a long history of Gaelic-speaking occupation on the island. Its precise dating and the circumstances of its depopulation require further archaeological investigation to establish definitively, though such sites across Mull document the dynamic history of rural settlement in the western isles.
