Chambered Cairn

Fieldnotes

This was a disappointing chambered cairn. What I had read had led me to expect that more would be visible.

All that you can now see of what was the longest chamber in Kintyre are a few stones poking through the grass.

The standing stone is a beauty though especially when viewed in atmospheric misty weather. Just a fraction over 5m high.

Access. There is a parking area at the foot of the track up to the farm. Steep but short climb. One fence.
