Yup
Its a stunning omission. A lot of people have encouraged me to go up and have a look including Theolonius here so Les and myself went for a look. (there are more than Pittenderich tho, South Deeside offers quite a few more apparently according to the Glentanar (near Aboyne) folks)
Good man, you'll enjoy the vibe and view :-)
Great stuff Drew. I'm guessing both you and Les think prehistory for the age? I can't thnk of any modern cairns shaped like this plus it's in an area packed full of old stuff. Strange that it's missing on the maps though. Any idea to the meaning of the word 'pittenderich'? I wonder if tiompan went past this when he visited Pressendye a few years back?
I see it's marked on the old OS Map (1867) as cairn in italics.
Patch of Heather apparently, nice one on the 1867 map. Prehistoric most definitely I'd say.
