Balnuaran of Clava Kerb Cairn
Date Added: 9th Feb 2019
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Scotland (Highlands)
Visited: Yes on 8th Aug 2014. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 5
Balnuaran of Clava Kerb Cairn submitted by SandyG on 8th Jan 2015. A marked contrast to the neighbouring cairns. Despite its less impressive character the presence of this cairn further emphasises the importance of the complex. It is perhaps worth noting that the stones appear to have been laid on the ground rather than erected upright in sockets. View from east (8th August 2014).
