OS 6"map, Inverness-shire, 2nd ed., (1906)
Mains of Clava, South East: Clava-type cairn. When visited by Fraser (1884) it was already fragmentary, but he records a kerb of about 50 feet diameter and an internal ring of about 18 feet diameter. The area where it stood is now waste land ... only a few stones of the structure, heavily overgrown, can now be seen.
A S Henshall 1963, visited 9 April 1957.
There are no remains of a stone circle or cairn at the site, which is overgrown by whin and gorse bushes. There is no local knowledge of a cairn even existing here.
Revised at 1/2500.
Visited by OS (N K B) 13 August 1964.
