markj99 visited on 19th Aug 2019 - their rating: Cond: 2 Access: 2 Ballynaugton cairn lies in rough ground c. 0.75 miles NW of Lagavulin Distillery. The track from Lagavulin Distillery car park heading NW leads to Lagavulin Cairn, Druim Mor Standing Stone, Achnancarranan Stone Row and Ballynaughton Cairn. The remnants of the Ballynaughton Cairn arecovered in ferns but the chamber is well defined.
