The turfs have been replaced over the trenches. The local farmer said people were digging there last week. Does anyone know who they might have been? It would be very interesting to find out if it is a cairn or a circle. I will make a few inquiries locally as well and post what I find , if anything. Peace , Lubin Hi Lubin, We were out that way back earlier in the year, and a couple of folk were doing what looked like a form of ground penetrating radar.... very organised, and - IIRC - from a University or somesuch. Intrigued to find out more. As far as the cairn/circle debate about this one, I've always thought that burying four rings of stones was a bit of overkill.... but the consensus is that this WAS a cairn.
