Log Text: Cairn with bank and ditch. From Harper howe you can see right across the valley west to Maes Howe, Unstan, Stennes, Brodgar, Bookan, south west to the Hoy hills, and east to Cuween and Wideford. That all these major sites are intervisible at Harper suggests some importance of this cairn.

Great Skirtful of Stones submitted by DavidRaven on 9th Jul 2003. A massive cairn near the Grubstones circle. It sits in a very exposed part of the moor, over 1150 feet above sea level, overlooking the Wharfe valley. A fallen stone lies in the centre of the 'crater', like a recumbent menhir - though it may be nothing of the sort.
