Visit Notes

Sunday, 27th April 2008

This once mighty cairn has been reduced to a low bump on the hilltop. One side of it has been cut away to make room for the access road to the nearby aerials.

This is a site that is only worth visiting for the views and the walk along the valley between here and McArt's Fort.
