Description
A cairn is located on enclosed land on Mynydd Bach. It measures 10.5m (NW-SE) by 7.2m with a height of 0.5m on the SE, 0.25m on the NW. The SE half of the mound is composed of small and medium grade stones consolidated with grasses while the NW half is composed is of loose stones, similar grade, consolidated only around the outer edge.
It lies only 150m to the S of a cist-cairn (93467) and a group of stone piles (95241). This cairn is probably an outlier to these.
