Mound, Altnacardich.
Three mounds are mentioned (Wallace 1886, 350) as existing at Altnacardich, but all those seen in this vicinity seemed to be natural except the one that stands about 20yds NE of the NE end of the house. This one is flattened on the top, is covered with grass and evidently contains large stones, but it has suffered so much disturbance that its original features are uncertain. But, if originally round, it measured have measured more than 50ft in diameter and still stands 5ft high on the down-hill side.
