Anyone been up there lately? Someone recently told me that the carved stone in the field on the way to cairn L has gone! Can anyone verify this?
Was up there last night ( http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/post/67357/cairn_s.html )and the carved stone just in from the gate is definitely still in place.

I was a bit dubious of some of Brennans claimed alignments, especially Cairn S but looks like he was right about it, in the state it's in now. It's odd the way the passage is sunken into the cairn behind the kerb, it's probably impossible to tell if there was any view from the chamber when the full cairn was in place though.

Cool Cian,

By the way is it me or is it not possible to put up new threads?
