Ardvannie 1

Ardvannie Kerb Cairn still survives despite the occasional visit from cows. Several kerbs remain in place and surprisingly not noted by Trove (Canmore) are the remnants of a cist situated in the middle of 6.5m wide cairn.

A superb view of Dun Creich to west and lovely views over Dornoch Firth add to site. The nearby pond much more recent.

From the chamber cairn at Ardvannie we headed west and pulled in at the first gate on the south side of the A836. Over the fence, head west following the pond until it’s end, head south then back east on the pond’s south side. This will lead straight to the site.

Be warned, if wet weather this will be a mud bath, however, for us it was dry and more of an ankle breaker.
