Beinn-y-Phott is right of centre, with the southern hills of the Isle of Man fading into the blue beyond. In the distance to the right you can see South Barrule (hillfort) and Cronk ny Arrey Laa (cairn). Seen from the upper slopes of Snaefell, with copious quartz outcrops.

It’s not clear whether the cairn on top of Bheinn-y-Phott is ancient (the 1:25000 shows it in antiquity script) but it’s a fine hill to put one on. Seen from near The Bungalow below Snaefell.
