Cairn Table
Cairn Table is a hill just south of Muirkirk. On the summit are two large cairns; one is largely intact, but the other was heavily robbed of stone to build a large monument to the people of Muirkirk who fought in the 1914-1918 war. Nearby are sites where agate stones can be found and these were worked into stone tools during the mesolithic period and assorted scrapers and cutters and other simple stone tools have been found in the area. It will be a new experience visiting this area.
