On the heather covered hill top are the remains of an entrance grave. The eroded side entrance walls and the perched capstone are slabs of white porphyritic granite. The sea in beyond the cliff face is calm, the sky is overcast.
Over 4000 years ago, an island people left a tribute on the hillside with this entrance grave. A memorial to an individual? A communal shrine? Through the mists of time, the purpose has been obscured, yet the soul of those ancients lingers in the land.
