Ardness, cairn 600m SSE of, is a prehistoric cairn located in Argyllshire, Scotland, situated approximately 600 metres south-south-east of Ardness. The monument dates to the Bronze Age and represents a burial or ceremonial structure characteristic of the period's funerary practices in the Scottish Highlands. As with many cairns of this era, the structure would have originally comprised a mound of stones, though its current condition reflects the effects of time and landscape changes. The site's archaeological significance lies in its evidence of Bronze Age settlement and mortuary practice in this region of Argyll.
