Cairn, Hare Law. This cairn is situated on the summit of Hare Law, 966 ft above sea level. It has been almost completely destroyed, the material that formed it having been cleared to ground-level in the N, W and S quadrants and only a low rickle of stones having been left to mark the periphery. This is pretty complete on the N and NW, a few large footings being visible on the N. Only in the E quadrant, under a modern surveyor’s cairn, does some of the original material, a mass of smallish stones, remains to a height of 3 ft, with a gentle slope to the periphery on the E side. Disturbance and the rushing of debris make measurements somewhat uncertain; but the cairn seems to be almost circular, measuring 55ft from N to S by 58 ft from E to W (Photos).
