Lower Bog

Chambered Cairn

Lower Bog (Chambered Cairn) by thesweetcheat I absolutely love this site, for all that the monument itself is a wreck.

No, I have a book called "The Guide To Mysterious Loch Ness and Inverness Area" by Geoff Holder, which despite the title is a wealth of prehistoric sites. He mentioned it with a grid ref and that let me match it with the site in Audrey Henshall's brilliant chambered cairns book (you can see why my luggage is so heavy when we go anywhere, Kindle? pah). All I had to do was find it!

That's also where I found out about nearby Meg's Stone, which isn't on Canmap at all (possibly because it may be natural, although I doubt it - you could slip it into Torbreck without anyone noticing).
