Cairn

Cairn, unclassified

What is recorded here

Cairn stands on the SE bank of an enclosure, set into a level limestone shelf on the southern slopes of the Termon plateau. It measures about 1.25m from southeast to northwest and 3.5m from southwest to northeast, a modest ridge of stone within a wider field system. Another cairn lies 50m to the northeast, with two more 150m and 220m to the southwest and several more on top of the plateau. Together they mark a place where people shaped the land, remembered what mattered and left behind a landscape still alive with presence.
