Description
A group of 15 low stony mounds built largely of limestone blocks is located on a limestone ridge. They vary in size from 2m-6m and in height from 0.15m-0.5m high.
Most, though not all, of the cairns appear on the OS 1:2500 scale plan (1964 ed) at coincident NGRs. One (Inventory USi) has been excavated and found to overlie a Neolithic structure.
