Asset Overview

Surmounting a rise at NJ 1645 4206 by Knockando, Moray, Scotland is a robbed cairn, surviving as a flat-topped turf-covered mound, measuring 14.0m N-S by about 16.0m transversely and c.1.1m high. A few kerb-stones are visible in the N and S, but the W and E arcs are obscured by modern field clearance. Near the centre of the cairn is a partially buried prostrate rectangular block c.1.2m by c.0.6m bearing 36 cup marks and four cup marks in a cross motif when viewed in Matcap.
