Full Description

L35 (NF702001) Well-embedded cairn about 1.3 m high, with ten stones visible forming a kerb around its periphery. Small stones embedded in turf on the top of the mound may be secondary clearance, but the regularity of the cairn, its profile and its neat kerb point to a primary kerbed cairn.
