Dornadilla, an ancient 'dun' or tower in Durness parish, Sutherland, in Strathmore, near the S base of Ben Hope. Traditionally said to have been built by a Scottish king, to serve as a hunting seat, it is now reduced to a fragment, which, 16 feet high and 150 feet in circumference, consists of two concentric walls of slaty stones.
