Use the monument name to explain the visit
Historic Environment Scotland describes Dun Beag as a broch on a rocky knoll near Bracadale. That is useful context for the destination, but it is not the location a tyre service vehicle should be sent to. Check whether your chosen map result identifies the monument rather than the place you parked.
Send a separate car pin and explain its relationship to the approach or visitor access point. Add the registration, colour and a fixed sign or feature visible at the vehicle.
Describe the parking conditions before requesting a visit
Tell the team which wheel has the problem, the ground surface and whether the car is level. Mention the space beside the affected wheel and whether other vehicles, an entrance or road traffic restrict access. A clear roadside location still needs assessment as a working position.
Follow the site’s current instructions and ask the responsible operator about permission where applicable. Do not enter the monument grounds or drive onto a path to improve a booking pin. The assessment needs the actual car position.
Send observations and specification together
Give the full tyre marking and describe when the problem became apparent. Include any warning, loss of pressure, visible damage or repair kit already used. A safely obtained sidewall photograph helps the team read the specification without guessing a size from the vehicle model.
Find the locking wheel nut key and say who can meet the fitter. With a rental vehicle, obtain the hire company’s assistance instructions and approval for independent work before accepting a proposed job.
Keep the next journey separate from attendance
Name your next booked stop and any genuine departure deadline as scheduling information. Review current availability for the actual tyre and vehicle location before reorganising your itinerary. The monument’s public visiting arrangements do not determine fitting attendance.
Approve the proposed work and total once the important details are confirmed. A confirmed replacement quote includes the selected tyre supply and agreed fitting service. Keep your booking contact reachable and update the team if another provider takes responsibility or the vehicle location changes.
Before you book
- Use the car pin below the walking destination.
- Describe slope, surface and wheel clearance.
- Prepare full tyre marking and locking key.
- Keep rental instructions and vehicle contact ready.

Your questions, answered.
Should I book tyre help at the broch coordinates?
Give the location of the parked vehicle and explain the accessible approach. A hilltop monument marker does not identify the car or a suitable working position.
Does a public heritage site mean mobile fitting is allowed?
The particular parked position, access, working room and any operator permission need checking. Visiting access should not be treated as approval for maintenance.
