Visit Notes

Saturday, 25th November 2006

There really is little to see of these three cairns. They sit in the saddle between Cairn N and the main peak of Carnbane East where Cairn T is. The only remains are an orthostat from one of the cairns with a couple of loose stones nearby and two bumps which represent the other cairns. I don't know which of the three cairns the orthostat represents.
