Knockmonean Cairn (Rathen)

This rather unexciting mound in a silage park close to the line South of Rathen station is a long cairn. (NK01816216)  Grey Granite noticed what appear to be kerb stones when walking North along the line to the station. Once the grass in the field has been cut, she and Rufus will explore the cairn more closely. Rufus notes that the cairn seems to be popular with rabbits. There appear to be many burrows in the sandy soil at the base of the cairn and when the grass was shorter several rabbits could be seen in the field. He will check this out when Grey Granite is examining the cairn.
