05/04/2009 - After visiting Cat Law in the morning we went to the twin topped Creigh Hill in the afternoon with its two cairns. Parked car at NO 2603 5978 and headed up to top of Macritch Hill then south to Cairn Motherie. Nice rocky cairn. (summit of this top is approx 1m higher than the south top) Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink
