Breasclete Chambered Cairn View all content for Breasclete

Visited 31.5.12 What madness is this? 10.30pm and I am climbing up a steep hill, over a barbed wire fence and looking for a chambered cairn in the middle of a field! To be fair the cairn was easy enough to spot when you get to the top of the hill. There are 4 stones making up the cairn – each about 1 metre high. Despite the dry weather we had experienced the ground was still quite boggy. The views from the cairn are cracking. The sun had set and sky was red. The moon shone overhead. The wind had dropped and the views over Lewis made the steep climb well worth the effort. The views really were a lovely sight.
