Lismore Cathedral cairn, located 180 metres west of Lismore Cathedral in Argyllshire, Scotland, is an ancient funerary monument of prehistoric date. The cairn represents a significant archaeological feature within the landscape of the Inner Hebrides, situated within the parish associated with the later medieval cathedral that became an important ecclesiastical centre. The monument's physical form as a cairn indicates its function as a burial structure from the prehistoric period, though precise dating and detailed structural information would require reference to specialist archaeological survey records held by Historic Environment Scotland. The site exemplifies the archaeological layering characteristic of many Scottish island locations, where prehistoric funerary monuments predate later historical settlement and religious development.
