Chambered Tomb
NG 047 966

As you drive into Horgabost on the A859, just past the entrance to the camping beach and after the BP sign on the right, there is a left turn. The house at this turning on the right of the road has a burial chamber in its garden right beside the road.



This is an unusual chamber in that it is planted up with flowers and shrubs! The large capstone is visible, it is about 2x1.75m and several of the supporting stones stand above the foliage. There seem to be four stones standing about 1m high. The site was excavated in 1859 when bones were found. The name comes from the Gaelic for giant.
