Lochorodale long cairn is a Neolithic funerary monument situated approximately one kilometre north-west of Lochorodale in Argyllshire, Scotland. The cairn dates to the Neolithic period and represents the characteristic long barrow tradition of monument construction practised across Britain during this era. Long cairns such as this example served as communal burial places and are among the most substantial and enduring Neolithic structures surviving in the Scottish landscape. The monument's physical form consists of an elongated mound of stone, typical of its class, though the precise dimensions and current condition of this particular example would require direct archaeological observation to establish with full accuracy.
