Carn Glas Essich Chambered Cairn
A visit will be led to this composite group of three conjoined cairns at Essich 3 miles outside Inverness which together form the largest Neolithic chambered cairn in the Highlands. This site has recently been cleared of gorse obscuring the site by members of NOSAS so that its plan can be more clearly seen. The visit will also look at a group of roundhouses and other later features in this landscape. MHG 3531
