At the den of Guynd there are some vestiges of what appears to have been an encamp-
-ment or stronghold called Dunhead situated upon an eminence formed of two ravines called
the Black den and the Den of Guynd. It is of a triangular form and is precipitous on
two sides and has been defended on the other by a ditch and rough wall or dike. From its
name it is probable that it was originally a Caledonian Fort though it may afterwards have
been occupied by the Danes or Norwegians during some of their incursions upon the coast.
