The second cairn on Bar Hill is some 40 meters south of the summit. Easily spotted as it is fenced. Like its near neighbour it is covered in turf and has been hollowed, probably an excavation. It is also crowned with various jabby things so I left it undisturbed. At 11 meters wide and half a meter in height it looks down onto the River Deveron which in turn leads me home.
