What is recorded here
Caithness, Scotland. The name still smells of distant trade and foreign hands. Whether the place kept that identity or took it from somewhere else, the words sound like movement rather than ownership.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CAIRNS. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
