Asset Overview

The panel lies in the centre of the roughly oval shaped hillfort/dun of Clachan Ard, Isle of Bute, directly west of the entrance into the fort. This is a prominent headland site with steep cliffs on the west, seaward, side descending about 20m to the shore and overlooking what would have been an ideally situated landing place (Port na h-Aille). There are open views across the West Kyle of Bute to the island of Inchmarnock as well as Arran and Kintyre Photographed by Patrick O'Sullivan, BM&NHS and part if the Scottish Rock Art Team on Bute
