markj99 visited on 13th Oct 2022 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 4 Access: 3 I visited Craigenlee Fell E Cairn via Craigenlee Fell W Cairn. Head ENE from Craigenlee Fell W Cairn through rough moorland grass for c. 400 yards to locate Craigenlee Fell E Cairn. The cairn is c. 120 yards E of a Wind Turbine.
Craigenlee Fell E Cairn is located c. 3 miles SW of Stranraer. It is a grassy round cairn measuring c. 25 yards in diameter and 1 yard high. The cairn has been almost entirely robbed of stones, leaving only several possible earthfast Kerb stones in situ. The surface of the cairn is undulating, perhaps the result of past excavations. A full description of Craigenlee Fell E Cairn is available in Canmore ID 60563. Craigenlee Fell W Cairn is located c. 400 yards WSW of Craigenlee Fell E Cairn.
