In a clearing in a wooded field near the River Naver stands the remains of a Neolithic chambered cairn. The cairn is composed of two chambers divided by large upright stones. The top of the cairn has been lost, so you can easily see the arrangement of the chambers and the central passage that leads to it.

Part of the Strathnaver Trail.
