Yes, that’s it.

A 0.8 x 1.1m single compartment chamber and a displaced capstone.

Still, I got there before the bracken concealed it. Lucky that.

Ardachearanbeg

Chambered Cairn

greywether Jun 7, 2004

This round Clyde cairn is near Lephinkill but is even less worth a visit than its neighbour.

Although it sits in a clearing in the forest, there is, as far as I could see, no attempt at leaving an access route. To visit it, you need a GPS and attitude.
