Carn Dubh, Beauly Firth NH 617 473 NH64NW 4

A large mound of stones standing 1.25km NNW of Bunchrew may be a beacon-stance. In 1909 Blundell noted that it measured 52m by 41 m and contained timber-work. In 1793 what may have been two others were visible; 'urns' are said to have been found in the largest mound.
