NH43SW 49 4488 3155
There are at least twenty-four small cairns in open moorland on the S face of Cnoc Itidh. Most of the cairns stand on a heather-grown terrace about 150m S of the summit of the hill, occupying an area measuring about 150m from E to W by 60m transversely. At least two, however, lie to the SW at NH 447 314, immediately E of Cnoceitchie farmstead (NH43SW 27), and another four to the SE at NH 450 314, to the NW of sheepfold NH43SE 43.
Visited by RCAHMS (SDB), September 1997.
