Possible remains of cairn, Sidhean Dubha, Isle of Lewis OS maps with a scale of 1:25,000 and larger show a cairn to the north-east of the highest point of Sidhean Dubha. There didn't appear to be one on the ground. The only thing I could find was this rough ring of stones which may previously have been the base of a cairn.

Dyke below Sidhean Loch na Cuilee, Isle of Lewis The dyke appears on the 2nd edition OS six inch map, surveyed in 1895, but not on the 1st edition, surveyed 1850-1853, and so, presumably, was originally built between some time between 1850 and 1895.
