Longside Moor
Longside Moor submitted by EmmaA : Longside Moor ring cairn. It's really hard to get a photo of this, but it's obvious when you're there, as long as you know what you're looking for. Otherwise it just looks like a farm-related pile of soil. The manure heap next to it doesn't help. But it is pretty substantial, and quite sad. Maybe some sunshine and summer would make it feel less depressing. 1.2.2026 (Vote or comment on this photo)
