Bumper Castle

Ring Cairn

stubob Mar 24, 2003

It’s taken me ages to find this scrubby looking Ring Cairn.

It’s roughly 9x8m in diameter and the bank is built of turf and stones, roughly 30-40cm in height.

If your in the area it’s not far from the road, but I wouldn’t make a special journey to see it.
