Cairn(s)
|
|
|
From Abbotswell Road follow the Kincorth Hill path heading west until the fence heads south. At this point follow the fence to the trig, which by this time the visitor will have noticed sits on top of the site.
This cairn has tremendous views east to the many ancient sites on Tullos Hill. It also has not so tremendous views to some of Aberdeen's busied industrial estates.
The eastern site of the cairn has seen a vast amount of damage. A lot of quarrying has happened. Meanwhile the eastern side seems to have been protected by the trig and the fence.
What remains is a cairn that was originally well over 18m wide, standing at almost 2m tall with a trig plonked on top.
A nice day to go explore and re-visit the other cairn almost a mile to the west.
