Cnoc Bad Na Cleithe

The monument is the remains of a chambered cairn dating to the Neolithic period, probably built and in use between around 4000BC and 2500BC. It is visible as a large stony mound measuring around 7m in diameter and standing up to about 1.5m in height. A passage, entering on the southeast side is still visible as is the burial chamber which appears to have an alcove or smaller chamber on its east side. The monument is located on a southwest facing slope, at about 150m above sea level.

This chambered cairn survives largely intact and measures around 6.5m north-south by 7.2m east-west and stands up to about 1.5m in height. There is evidence of an entrance passage leading to what appears to be a double burial chamber. A number of large stones are visible on the top of the cairn which may be lintels or slumped capstones.
