Dun Fhuarlit Kerbed Cairn View all content for Dun Fhuarlit

From Kilmory Chapel look west, a modern marker cairn sits on top of the ancient monument. The only obstacle is the Kilmory Burn which is a relatively easy jump. Surprisingly the ground was dry despite the recent storms, the Atlantic wind drying the grass, which in turn is kept reasonably short by the local sheep. Kerbs remain in place around the southern side of the much exploited cairn. A lot of stones have been removed, leaving a site that is 19m wide and, in parts, almost 1m high. Stunning views up and down various sea lochs, further west the Paps Of Jura dominate the skyline. Visited 08/04/2024.
