| Visited 07.04.12 Fleucharg Long Cairn has certainly been abused over the millennia, most probably in the last centuries. However, it is still a significant presence in the landscape worth visiting. It was archaeologically excavated in 1937. Canmore ID 65063 (go to Links) states it "measures 150 ft NNE-SSW by 44 ft across the N end and 85 ft some 25 ft from the S end, and has a maximum height of 14 ft." Of particular note was "a setting of three boulders, possibly part of a kerb" according to Canmore ID 65063. There are also large voids in the cairn due to stone robbing. It is identified as White Cairn in OS 1:50k maps. |
