Full Description
Cairn, White Glen (Gleann Geal): This very badly robbed cairn, measuring 4.57m in diameter and 1.22m in height, is situated 91.44m N of the White Glen River at Allt na Mucaireachd.
I Thornber 1974.
The RCAHMS (1980) make no mention of a cairn at the grid reference given. They therefore do not consider the feature described by Mr Thornber to be an antiquity; alternatively, though the dimensions differ, he may be alluding to the cairn described on NM75SW 1, which is close to the position given.
