Description
Quite likely an outlier to a cairn group to the East (nprn: 94677). 4.5m by 3.5m and 0.4m high. Unlike its neighbours it is located on low-lying ground. The presence of a scoop on the South raises the possibility of alternative origins (possibly prospecting or military activity). A number of similar mounds have been noted on the other side of the mountain at ST 127932.
