Diarmuid’s Tomb

One of many legends in Glenshee connected to Finn mac Cumhaill.

Dhiarmaid or Diarmuid O’Duibne (“of the bright face”) was one of the legendary Finn mac Cumhaill’s most trusted warriors.

It is said that he is buried in this mound and that the four standing stones point across to Ben Gulabin to mark the place of his death.

There are many Finn legends all over Ireland and Scotland but place name research has found evidence of a density of these legends in Glenshee, unprecedented in Scotland.
