Cairn, 110m SW of Almondbank Filling Station is a prehistoric burial monument located in Perthshire, Scotland. The site represents a form of monumental burial practice characteristic of Bronze Age or earlier periods in Scotland, when communities constructed substantial stone cairns to mark the graves of significant individuals or to serve communal ritual purposes. The monument's survival in the landscape near Almondbank demonstrates the distribution of such funerary cairns across the Tay valley region, though detailed excavation records and specific artefactual evidence for this particular site are not extensively documented in readily accessible scholarly sources.
