This ring-cairn, the biggest of the Clava-type group, lies in a field not far from the River Nairn (Inverness). Inside the almost complete kerb of stones remains the disturbed cairn, mixed with earth and turf-covered. Of the encircling stone circle only three uprights survive. The largest (in the foreground) is a gigantic slab 3.3m long and 3m wide but only 0.23m thick.
