Faint traces of axe head carvings on a slab in the exposed southern cist.

The rebuilt cairn’s stones looked superb in the early morning frost.

Axe carvings within the cist

A section of the linear cemetry taking in Nether Largie Mid, Nether Largie North and The Glebe Cairn.

The slab’s location at the end of a row of modern houses makes it all the more striking

I found the pecked lines on this slab a particularly striking feature, linking up the natural cracks in the rocks surface, kind of confounding any ideas I have about rock art.

Torbhlaren and it’s standing stone

The cupmarked rock outcrop which forms part of the Torbhlaren alignment

On the path from the Carnasserie castle car park lies this hidden cist.

A view from the cairn to the standing stones – high on the horizon is the massive cairn called ‘Carn Bàn’ (indicated with an arrow).
