Cairn, Carn Ban, Garrafad.

At an elevation of barely 100 feet above sea-level, some 400 yards east of Staffin Lodge and 200 yards from the southern shore of Staffin Bay, are the remains of Carn Ban, a large circular cairn measuring 52 feet in diameter. The cairn is almost levelled to the ground, the circumference being outlined by a ring of large stones set on edge.

RCAHMS 1928, visited 27 May 1914.
