NA7246 : Flannan Isles: the cairn

taken 13 years ago, near to Dearc na Sgeir [other features], Na h-Eileanan an Iar, Great Britain

Flannan Isles: the cairn
Flannan Isles: the cairn
One of the stones has an inscription, presumably identifying the date it was built and the individuals concerned. The date 30 October 1951 and the name A. McColl are still legible but a second name is just too worn to be read.

See NA7246 : Flannan Isles: detail of cairn inscription.
