Cuag

Chambered Cairn

thelonious Aug 8, 2016

03/08/2016 – Just a short walk along the road north from Burn of Houstry brings you opposite Cuag chambered cairn on the other side of the burn. There’s a bridge at ND 1542 3308. Nice cairn with chamber stones visible. It’s in the middle of an area of newly planted trees so could lose its view in a few years time. Buoldhu chambered cairn is just a short walk up hill to the NW.
