Tynron Doon is a multivallate iron age hill fort outside the village of Tynron in Dumfriesshire in the District Council Region of Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.
It was occupied on and off from the 1st millennium BC until the 16th century, when an L shaped tower house stood there. Tynron Doon lies at the southern end of the Scaur hills.
Famous quotes containing the word doon:
“They yelleden as fiendes doon in hell;
The duckes cryden as men would them quell;
The geese for feare flewen over the trees;
Out of the hive came the swarm of bees.”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
