The barrows located 340 metres north-north-east of Millburn in Strath Halladale, Sutherland, form a Bronze Age burial complex situated in the far north of the Scottish Highlands. These monuments represent the funerary practices of prehistoric communities who occupied the straths and glens of this region during the second millennium before Christ. The barrows comprise earthen mounds constructed to cover inhumed or cremated remains, typical of Bronze Age mortuary tradition in northern Scotland. Their presence in Strath Halladale contributes to the archaeological record of settlement and land use in one of Scotland's more remote and marginal Bronze Age landscapes.
