Duncan Michie, Gd. [Ground] Officer James Caithness, Shank Thomas Merry, Mid Cairncross |
007 | A very large circular pile of stones, near Tarfside, It is set at the bottom with a ring of large stones, and smaller ones are piled on the top of them, It is about 50 links in diameter. It is usually called the "Blue Cairn" in the neighbourhood, It is the most perfect, though not the largest, of four similar Cairns in this neighbourhood, One near the farm of "Baillies" on Sheet 6., One about 1½ miles from this, near the side of the public road along the Southern foot of Craig Soales and another on the Edzell side of the "Burn of Turret" _ It is not improbable that this Cairn may have had a Cross on or near it, from the fact of a portion of this district going by the name of Cairncross, but there is no tradition concerning it. |
