This chambered cairn is recorded as Canmore Site ID 12736, "Lower Bog", which gives us an extract from a site visit by RCAHMS in 1979: "The remains of this Orkney-Cromarty cairn stand 450m WNW of Lowerbog farmhouse. The cairn, which measures about 16m in diameter, has been extensively robbed, but a two compartment chamber, entered from the E, can still be seen." The Canmore site record does not include any photographs, so many thanks to PeterCrane5 for his contribution.
