Cairn Culroy. (33)
In a grass park to the S. [South] of the road about
1/2 m. [mile] to the NW. [North West] of Culroy farm house is a cairn
much dilapidated and reduced to an elevation
varying from 2’ to 4’. In diameter it has measured from
54’ to 58’.

Cairn Culroy. (33)
Some 500 yds. [yards] WNW [West North West] of Culroy on a slight elevation
is a low heap of large stone which resembles a
demolished cairn It measures 40’ in diameter.
(This is the object marked cairn on the 1’ Ord. [Ordnance] Map :
that so marked on the 6’ Map of 1909 some 120
yds. [yards] to the W [West] is not a cairn.)

Cairn Culroy. (33)
Some 600 yds. [yards] NW. [North West] of Culroy is the same grass
field as the last but nearer the road is a
well preserved cairn measuring 9’ in eleva:
:tion and 58’ in diameter.

Cairn Culroy. (33)
The 6” O.S. [Ordnance Survey] map marks a cairn by the road-
-side on the S. [South] some 200 yds. [yards] nearer Culroy. This
cairn has disappeared if it ever existed on the
spot indicated. On the site were some fragments
of roofing tiles suggesting the former existence
of a cottage. Since visiting the spot I
observe that the 1” map places the cairn
on the N. [North] side of the road.

[Opposite page - text inserted] 30th May. Revisited the cairn near Culroy. It was
situated on the N. [North] side of the road but has been
almost obliterated.
