Cuween Hill Cairn. The image shows a rough grassy rounded cairn beyond a fence and wooden ladder stile. An entrance can be seen in the near face of the cairn. The scene is in sunlight.

Cuween Hill Cairn can be found on the flank of Cuween Hill, close to the village of Finstown on Orkney's West Mainland. It was in use between about 4,500 and 5,000 years ago. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

What a day for #pollencoring in #orkney at #Lyradale #Orkney views across to #wideford #bayofirth #cuween #neolithic #tomb #finstown and right round to #maeshowe #stonesofstenness and #nessofbrodgar

Looking across at #cuween #neolithic #tomb #wideford hill #grimbister and #damsay islands in the #bayoffirth #firth #orkney. We've had a wee bit of snow overnight 😍

Here's a photo of the #runes inside #cuween #neolithic #tomb thought to mimic #norse #runes inside #maeshowe #passagetomb #orkney They are said to be from #LOTR can anyone confirm or translate?

It's beautiful up here on #cuween hill today. Always strikes me as interesting that locals have chosen to build modern day #standingstones just behind the #neolithic #tomb #orkney #archaeology #greatview #scotland

Beautiful but bleak up at #Cuween #Neolithic chambered hill cairn today. @HistEnvScot any news when these unmanned sites will open again? www.historicenvironment.scot/visit-a-place/places/cuw... #orkney #archaeology #finstown #firth #scottishislands...

#orkney #bayoffirth #firth #modernstandingstones #carryingontradition #standingstones #flagstone #islandview Nobody seems to know when the stacks of stones above #cuween #neolithic cairn started to be erected by locals, but it continues to be a work in progress
