Cairn, Allt a’ Chaoruinn

Situated on a ridge between the Allt a’ Chaoruinn and Kyle of Durness, about ¼ m E of the road and 170 ft above it, and about 1/3 of a mile due S of where the road crosses the burn, is a cairn. It has a diameter of about 44 ft [13.4m] and height of 7 ft [2.1m]. Though it has been dilapidated to some extent in the past to form a sheepfold which adjoins it, no chamber or cist has been exposed.
