Cairnholy 2 | Chambered Cairn | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 20th Mar 2020 | 4 | 5 | 4 | I was meant to visit Stonehenge on Equinox and had everything booked.

There is a gate, and a signpost. Sheep in the field. | ||
High Banks Farm | Rock Art | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 22nd Jan 2020 | 4 | 5 | 3 | Not far fromKirkcudbright. The farm track requires careful driving. Walk from the farm is well signposted and easy going but 2 steep stiles to cross |
