Chambered Cairn

Fieldnotes

On the A833 head south and stop at Kiltarlity, I parked at the restaurant near the road. Cross the road and head in a south easterly direction, the site is just over the crest of the hill.

There are tremendous all round views from, a truly beautiful location. 5 stones still stand with boulders and other field clearence for company. This was the start of the long walk, the other chamber cairn just north of here (same estate) was defeated by the onset of darkness and rain. But with all the other stuff I want to see I'll surely return. The village has also a decent pub :-)

This area around Loch Ness is full of stuff isn't it? Plenty to get your teeth into. I like the look of this one, are the bigger stones clearance or part of the cairn do you think? thesweetcheat Posted by thesweetcheat

The bigger stones are field clearance. Hillforts and chamber cairns everywhere. drewbhoy Posted by drewbhoy
