Sheuchan Hill

Directions to Sheuchan Hill Cairn:

Take the New Luce/Industrial Estate turn off the A75 in Castle Kennedy. Continue along this minor road for c. 1.9 miles to reach a farm track to Little Tongue on the left. Follow this single track road for c. 0.5 mile to a shed where it is possible to park up by a cattlegrid at NX 1281 6245. I met a friendly farmer who was quite happy for me to visit the cairn. Walk c. 150 yards along the farm track to a right-angled bend. There is a gate on the left. Walk S across a paddock for c. 50 yards to a gap in a dry stane dyke bordering rough moorland. Walk c. SW on a bearing of 238° for c. 250 yards to reach Sheuchan Hill Cairn at NX 12250 62180. In truth, there is not much to see, just tussocks of marsh grass with no visible stones. My walking route is viewable on Sheuchan Hill Cairn. Given the difficult boggy terrain underfoot, I wouldn’t recommend following in my footsteps.

Kit’s Coty

Looping back to the Dartford Crossing – still scandalously, inexplicably extorting money from the good people of Britain – I took the opportunity to revisit this well-known site... a few of the passing punters even took an interest, with a little help from yours truly.

The eastern panel, the Panorama Stone itself. This is the stone that was cut into four. I’d mistakenly thought that the other two panels were cut from this one, but that isn’t the case; this panel was cut up into four pieces and then reassembled.
