Cairn in Highlands. Cnoc Chaornaidh Central is a ruined cairn which lies equidistant between Cnoc Chaornaidh NW & SE. It is turf covered with a scattering of surface stones concentrated in the centre. According to Canmore ID 4738 it is a "probable chambered cairn, 13.0m in diameter and 2.4m in maximum height". A suspected side slab and lintel were noted on the NW of the cairn.
