Quick sketch in the rain today. More rain? This is the view from the track to our house, looking across the valley. I think it might be called Kenlum Hill.

The spectacular Cairnholy I Chambered Cairn near the A75 west of Gatehouse of Fleet in Dumfries & Galloway. A second cairn stands only 150m from it. The cairn seems to have stood here for between 4,000 and 6,000 years. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/gatehouseoffleet/cairnholyi/index.html
