Border Stane & Long Cairn


This weeks Wednesday Walk and we were back at 7 Stanes in Newcasleton with John able to join us after his holiday in Australia. This photograph is taken on the English side of the Border at the Border Stane marking the boundary. The reason for the long faces is of course because we were in England.

But of course we were soon back in Scotland and able to smile.

The walk took us to this ancient Long Cairn which to look at is just a collection of stones as the photograph below shows.

Tom was very excited about the Long Cairn but John and I thought it was just a collection of stones and nothing much to write home about.

These forestry tracks are excellent for walking and well waymarked. Our walk today was just short of 7 miles but an excellent walk and mostly dry underfoot.

You had a good day with fine weather this time. Nothing to blame Tom for here.
