Sgalabraig Cairn circle View all content for Sgalabraig

At Sgalabraig, where rocky outcrops rise above the rough pasture, there is to be found an arrangement of ancientstones, some of which may also have Viking associations. The most prominent of these is called the Chair Stone. The purpose of the site is open to speculation, but it may have been a Viking court or meeting place with the Chair Stone as the seat of the judge and a prominent stone opposite, the place for the accused. The site could also have been a burial ground. http://www.gatliff.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/1519_Berneray-walk.pdf
