Kilchoan of Poltalloch

Cairn(s)

Fieldnotes

This is a fascinating site - if you can turn a blind eye to the muddy mess in which it stands.

For a start, all the structural stuff (capstones, lintels etc) are here even if they have moved a bit.

Also interesting is the layout (high portal stones running parallel to the chamber, no facade) which point to this being an example of an early Clyde cairn.

Best visited on a dry day!
