Southern arc of the ring-cairn. The bank is about 10 metres thick in this section.

Distorted pano looking south-east over this fairly magical ring-cairn. Access up here was a killer, but this was worth it.

Pano taken looking north-west over this most impressive ring cairn. The slab to the right marks a possible entrance to what was surely a ceremonial enclosure, probably dating from the bronze age, and less than 150 metres from the Eagle’s Knoll passage grave.
