The remains of a hay barn at the edge of an overgrown mountain hayfield


Clearance Cairns and Hay Barns

In the forests between Gaschurn and the May field, Aussertafamunt, the hiker comes across fragments of stone walls and a few derelict hay barns. The walls, or clearance cairns were used to mark property lines and on the other hand, together with the remains of the barns, show which fields were used for making hay.
