Full Description
PY1 (NL61618737) Cairn.
Location: Coastal shelf on Rosinish peninsula.
Description: Oval stone ring, 2.3 x 2 m, around 0.3 m high earthen mound. A larger circle of spaced stones, 4.6 x 5.6 m appears to have once been set around the perimeter of a much larger mound, but erosion has denuded much of the local area down to bedrock.
