NG 6018 2337 On the summit of Beinn na Caillich, the conspicuous hill rising to a height of 2403’ about 2 1/2 miles west of Broadford, is a cairn of stones measuring some 50’ in diameter. The body of the cairn measures 8’ in height, but seems to have been originally higher, as the top is surmounted by a cone of stones rising another 6’ in height, doubtless of late construction. Although local tradition says that it was erected over the grave of a Norwegian Princess, without excavation it is impossible to say if it is a prehistoric monument. Hill top cairns of large dimensions and at considerable altitudes are found in many parts of Scotland.
