Think the stones visible in the hollow on top of the barrow are in fact the remains of a lime kiln. stubob Posted by stubob

Remains of a chambered cairn, in one of the hollows in the dug out top are 2 large stones, not being an expert, I don't know if they the remains of the chamber or not. The cairn was built over a standing stone, this stone is supposed to be visible, again is this something to do with the larege stones on the top?

Views over the fields to Win and Lose Hill.
