The Good Man’s Fauld

Cairn(s)

drewbhoy Mar 17, 2011

This cairn or what remains of it can be seen directly behind the Leslie Flying Club. Situated on the lower slopes of Hawk Hill. Further up is the RSC famous for it’s massive recumbent stone. Since it was getting darker and very cold I headed back to the car and will return on a better day.

Leave Premnay, B992, head west towards Leslie/Clatt, the trees are directly behind the air strip to the south. Much easier to go to Edingarioch farm, which saves jumping the Gadie Burn.
