Kerbs can be seen poking through. A handy pole marks the site which is looking down the Strathnairn valley.

Bridgend 2

Cairn(s)

drewbhoy Oct 25, 2016

From the kerb cairn we headed back to the tall wooden gates, climbed them and headed in a north east direction. This cairn is difficult to spot thanks to the blanket of heather. Sadly this didn’t prevent it from getting a houking.

This cairn is built amongst a few hut circles and is over 8 metres wide and almost 0.5 meters tall. Several kerbs remain in place. Another nice little site with good views. After a good look round we made our way back downhill avoiding any dodgy bogs.
