The remains of a chambered cairn now landscaped and topped with trees. There is a local tale that this big old tomb was the burial spot for a great Pictish chief. This tale gave the cairn its local title, the Mound of the Dearg Mor. (from James Kennedy's "Folklore & Reminiscences of Strathtay and Grandtully", 1927)
