Full Description
A possible burial cairn at Achvraid. It appears on vertical aerial photographs as a large stone pile, possibly having been robbed. A roughly square-oval feature c.30m across appears at its centre. It may be a large clearance cairn but its size and the apparent internal feature may suggest against that [IS-L 12/07/2023].
