This Neolithic Long Cairn, which surprisingly couldn't be found by the Canmore people, is no more than 200 meters north of the A98 about a 1/2 mile east of the Buckie junction. What is difficult is the job of taking decent pictures because of the overgrowth. Eventually I found two spots that showed at least the bottom of the cairn. At the eastern end some stones can be seen after a battle with various "jabby things".

Plenty car parking as a lay by is on the opposite side of the road.
