This is a fantastic Chambered tomb! I visited it just two days ago. The distance to get to it is quite far, but I wouldnt say it was difficult. I would certainly say it was difficult to find. It is surrounded by gorse making it almost impossible to be seen.
I had not seen any prior pictures and I only saw it as a dot on a OS Map so I was expecting a badly preserved cairn or something so when I was this I was pleasantly surprised. The views from this tomb are amazing, an almost 360 degree view.
There are viewpoints by archaeologists that the distance and effort into these monuments is one of the important factors. However there is an outcrop of stone (which can be seen in this picture) a stones throw from this tomb which the stone almost certainly was taken from...distance and great effort was not an important factor at this tomb then. The rock at this outcrop was interesting as they were almost like protruding from the earth and resembled standing stones themselves.
Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road |
