Description
A 5 m diameter, 0.5 m high, circular earth and stone mound. There are large stones around the circumference suggesting the presence of a curb. The center of the cairn has been disturbed in the past, a hollowed area measures 1.1 m by 1.4 m by 0.2 m deep, and contains an upright slab. This was possibly the location of a cist. A small mound of earth to the west, 3 m in diameter and 0.4 m high is probably the spoil removed from the center. Methodology: 30 m transect survey. Positional accuracy: less than 10 m. Tolerance of accuracy: +/- 5m. K. Laws, EAS Ltd, 27/11/2007.
