Guess the classification of this needs to be changed, too. Was going to say it belongs in the Borders... but not exactly far away from Scotland, come to think of it. GLADMAN Posted by GLADMAN

Is it not a long cairn then? it's lots longer than it is wide, and all the round cairns up here (of which there's loads) are all perfectly round. postman Posted by postman

It's classified as a long barrow. GLADMAN Posted by GLADMAN
