Carn Mor (Lismore)
Carn Mor (Lismore) submitted by PAB : Carn Mor, Lismore. We could not readily identify convenient access to the field where the cairn was located, so this is the best I could achieve. The long walk back to catch the ferry meant I've had to leave this for someone else to capture properly! Photo, May 2019 (Vote or comment on this photo)

Carn Mor (Lismore)
Carn Mor (Lismore) submitted by PAB : The cairn is located in a field next to a property marked on OS Map as Balimackillichan, reached by the lane south of the Clachan Stone. This unusual gate should help identify where I mean - I'd never seen one like it! Photo: May 2019 (Vote or comment on this photo)
