Crosh Mooar Fort


Description:  Neolithic burial cairn. This much-damaged cairn has been plundered of stone for use in nearby field boundaries. It is obscured by gorse but measures approximately 20m in diameter and is raised up to 1.2m above the level of the neighbouring field. The field boundary to the north and west may incorporate part of the body of the cairn. Internal structures, apparently representing chambers or passages, have been noted in the past.
