Fingal’s Cauldron Seat…

Isle of Arran, Sunday, 30th October 2022

***

***

Walking along the track

a couple of suspicious stones

draw the attention…

***

 

***

They turn out to be the feet

of a long barrow

which runs directly alongside the track.

*

And this turns out to be some sort

of switch, or trigger, for the sun

which from this point on gradually begins to appear

from behind the swathes of clinging cloud…

***

***

The first site to appear

is affectionately known as

Fingal’s Cauldron Seat…

***

***

We can let the information board explain this one…

***

***

Fingal’s dog is called Bran,

by the way.

***

***

The holed-stone for Bran’s tether

is the third stone from the left in the image below.
