Dun, 260m east of Loch Glashan, is a prehistoric fortified settlement located in Argyllshire, Scotland. The site represents a form of defensive domestic architecture characteristic of Iron Age settlement patterns in the Scottish Highlands, though its precise dating remains subject to archaeological interpretation. The dun would have functioned as a stronghold for a local community, with its defensive stone construction indicating a period of social organisation and territorial control typical of the later prehistoric period in this region.
