Airidhan An T-sruthain Ghairbh Chambered Cairn View all content for Airidhan An T-sruthain Ghairbh

Airidhan An T-sruthain Ghairbh means 'properties of the coarse stream'. We headed for the summit of Guala na h-Imrich wading through bogs, peat cuttings and heather. Once at the top it started to rain. From the top the cairn looks a lonely place, with a the rain a desolate place as well. Still its's always worth it when you get there so on we plodded. There appears to a ring of stones on edge or fallen surrounding site which 22m wide. Two massive stones are probably capstones. Sadly some stones have been drilled. On a sunny this would be a beautiful place, on a cloudy rainy early evening it is still a beautiful place with an atmosphere of complete calm and silence. Visited 23/7/2019.
