Dun Domhnuill is a prehistoric fortified settlement located near Seafield in Argyllshire, Scotland. The monument consists of the remains of an Iron Age dun, a form of small fortified dwelling characteristic of Scotland's Atlantic coastal regions during the first millennium BC. The site, situated approximately 70 metres north-north-east of Seafield, preserves evidence of defensive stone construction typical of Iron Age settlement patterns in the western Highlands. Such duns served as secure homesteads for elite families or small communities, combining domestic and defensive functions within a compact circular or oval stone-built structure.
