Cairnharrow Cup & Ring Markings on Canmore
Visited 11.03.17
This stone is listed as Canmore ID 63668 (go to Links).
It is a moss covered stone with a large worn ring mark and several cup marks visible in its current state. Canmore lists more ring marks but I didn’t remove the moss to look for them.
Access to the site is by climbing up the slope of Cairnharrow for about 0.5 mile across rough ground or by a longer detour from Cambret Hill.

Cambret Moor Cairn on Canmore.
Visited 27.04.21
Cambret Moor Cairn is a round cairn measuring c. 7.5m in diameter and 0.5m in height according to Canmore ID 90631 (go to Links). It has been almost entirely robbed out, leaving a footprint of moor grass which is almost invisible in the rough moorland. There is a large stone on the perimeter of the E Arc, possibly a kerb stone and a rough circular hollow c. 2m across in the centre of the cairn. A small stone setting remains on the NW Arc of the hollow opposite an exposed cist stone in the S Arc of the hollow.
What lies beneath is key...... towards the lush Conwy valley.
