    Drumcarrow craig is a lovely place to visit just outside the village of peat inn (with its fabulous restaurant) and denhead village the only thing that spoils it for me is the moblie phone posts however it is worth the short walk to reach the peak and be rewarded with the amazing 360 degree view of all the surronding towns and villages.

    I visited the Drumcarrow Craig yesterday afternoon. I was curious about the site after seeing it listed as containing a Broch and hut circles on the Ordinance Survey map. I didn't find any visible evidence of either except for a few piles of stones in no apparent order. I couldn't find much evidence of any circular arrangement of the stones. There are two peaks there, one with the TV or radio towers and one with a large pile of stones.
