Kinord Cross

We stopped off to visit this beautifuly carved 9C Pictish cross on the shore of Loch Kinord on the way back from today's orienteering at Glen Feardar .  Amazing detail considering how old it is. We made a circular walk hoping to take in hut circles and the ruins of  Old Kinord. Internet archeaological notes state -"An extensive settlement (the Old Kinord Group), containing several unusual features, lies on the strip of land between Loch Davan and Loch Kinord. The settlement is enclosed by a wall and comprises eighteen enclosures, ten or more hut circles, 'cairns', walls and rows of implaced stones, two earth-houses, and a 'chambered structure' . Typical of Ancient British".  However high bracken meant most were not obvious.

Unavailability of the internet means back blipping of this and yesterdays event arena at the same time.
