253.16 | A steep bank at the confluence of two streams on the farm of Corriecravie and believed by the people of the neighbourhood to be a tumulus, but it appears to be a natural bank. McArthur, in his antiquities, describes an "Imperfect Cairn, within three concentric circles", at this place. The oldest inhabitants of Corriecravie never heard of such, but they invariably point to Stron a Liath, as a burying place, though it does not seem to have the slightest appearance to such. There are three graves in Corriecravie not mentioned by the Antiquarian, but they could not have any connection with "three concentric circles". |
