Site Type: Chambered Cairn

Woodhead Round Chambered Cairn submitted by PeteCrane5 on 7th Sep 2023. Sadly this chambered cairn is now fenced out at the corner of a Christmas tree field, very difficult to get to and the cairn is covered with broom ..... it's like we don't care.

Beinn Mhor
Date Added: 18th Feb 2024
Site Type: Round Cairn
Country: Scotland (Moray)
Visited: Yes on 24th Jan 2024
Beinn Mhor submitted by PeteCrane5 on 24th Jan 2024. 'The cairn is now little more than an amorphous heap of stones with no trace remaining of a kerb. In the centre, the remains of the cist are exposed.' (Oram 1996s) Exposed but full of vegetation. Yet well worth a visit as it is a 'tomb with a view; of both the Cairngorms and characteristic Ben Rinnes to north east.
