Cairn, Loch na h-Airde, Loch Brittle.
Some 50 yards north of Loch na h-Airde, a lochan lying about 500 yards east of Rudh an Dunain, on the southern side of the mouth of Loch Brittle, at an elevation of some 50 feet above sea-level, is a denuded cairn of stones. The southern half has been considerably reduced in height, but to the north of the centre it still stands 11 feet high. It is now oval on plan, measuring some 76 feet from north to south, and 66 feet from east to west. On the east side are three displaced slabs set on edge, about 3ft in length, and over 2 feet in height, while a fourth is seen near the western edge of the cairn.
