Monael 3

Cairn(s)

drewbhoy Feb 14, 2010

Walk another 50 or so meters from the cup marked stone north. This small cairn isn’t marked by the OS but is by Philips. Two, fairly steady, kerbs remain in place whilst others seem to have joined into the main cairn. The cairn is some 4 meters wide and stands, at it’s tallest, at just over 1 meter. Once again it is set in stunning scenery.
