Three cairns on Ravock, Bowes Moor, 830m north east of Ravock Castle

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Three cairns on Ravock sit 830m north east of Ravock Castle, marked as a scheduled monument because they still matter though nobody records who built them. They may have guided horses, warned travelers, or honored a dead person whose name dissolved before writing arrived. The moor keeps them exposed rather than buried, forcing attention instead of allowing forgetfulness.
