Corrimony Chambered Cairn - 5

The chamber was probably topped with a large stone slab, whose remains can be found on top of the cairn today.



This slab was decorated with a series of abstract designs known as 'cup marks'. Unusually, part of the passage to the burial chamber still remains intact.
