Scope and Content Toum Cairn is a Bronze Age cairn rising to nearly 4 m. It stands on a sloping terrace just NE of Toum farm buildings, near Ochnoir farm. The flattened summit of the cairn suggests that it may have been looted at some stage in the past, but the sides of the boulder heap show no signs of disturbance. There are traces of a possible kerb on the south side. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
