Hidden under the various foliage, perhaps is the end of the souterrain.

In amongst the roots there is evidence of stonework.

Tom Breac

Souterrain

drewbhoy Jul 11, 2021

Sadly there is not to much to be seen of the souterrain on Tom Breac as it has been backfilled. However some stonework can be seen and the outline is reasonably visible. It is a fairly safe bet that the site is in good condition underneath the earth and turf.

With it being the Easter holidays I parked at Strathdon Primary School. Follow the track that heads north on the west side of the school, veer west, when the track reaches a dyke, then north on a track that is just about visible. The site is in the biggest clearing that looks east over to the Hill of Cummerton.

Not much to see, but at least it is there.
