Description
A large oval cairn. The cairn is made from scree stones. It measures 11m by 7m and is 0.4m high. The outer edges are turf covered and the centre has been hollowed out to create a shelter. The cairn is situated on fairly level ground with views over the valley and river below. There is no evidence of a kerb or cist. This site is not shown any historic or modern OS mapping. H. Leighton, OA North, 8th April 2015.
