Balnuaran of Clava Kerb Cairn
Date Added: 9th Feb 2019
Site Type: Cairn
Country: Scotland (Highlands)
Visited: Yes on 8th Aug 2014. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 5
Balnuaran of Clava Kerb Cairn submitted by SandyG on 8th Jan 2015. A marked contrast to the neighbouring cairns. Despite its less impressive character the presence of this cairn further emphasises the importance of the complex. It is perhaps worth noting that the stones appear to have been laid on the ground rather than erected upright in sockets. View from east (8th August 2014).

Date Added: 4th Jan 2018

Visited: Yes on 15th Mar 2017. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 5 Access 4
Ballochroy submitted by howe on 9th Jun 2009. The three stone row viewed in a traditionally reported solistial alignment with the paps of Jura.
In fact, antiquarial descriptions of the site show that the row was linearly aligned with three cairns and a further standing stone directed toward a hill on the mainland. Onlt one cist of the cairns is now visible.

Log Text: Car parking is available at NR 72587 52099 which involves a long walk north along the beach or highway to NR 72992 52713 where the track to the stones leaves the public road. Alternatively you may wish to drive up the track and seek permission to park closer to the stones. The stones themselves are easy to find and are relatively close to a prominent modern farm building.
