Description
Possible cairn defined by a low spread of stone 7m in diameter situated upon an outcrop at the northern end of a SW to NE aligned ridge of volcanic rock. This cairn may form part of a group of 4 other cairns (NPRNs 308048, 308047, 302261, 302262) already identified along the ridge, the nearest one 166m to the south-west.

A linear bank (NPRN 421095), appears to be aligned on this cairn. It runs from a parish boundary (NPRN 421094) part of which is thought to have early antecedents.
