Knappach East

Cairn(s)

drewbhoy Nov 14, 2016

Knappach East has taken a severe battering having been trenched and basically had its cairn material scattered about. Today the trench had been filled by the Autumn leaves and looked very pretty with its autumnal makeover.

The site sits at around 10 metres wide and reaches about 0.5 metres in height. Its near neighbours to the west have fared better despite the forestry works. From The Knappach walk in a north easterly direction.

Time to head west to Maryfield in the light rain.
