Full Description
VS15 (NL623942) Roughly circular cairn, 2.6 x 2.3 m diam., with nine perimeter stones in situ. This appears to be a small kerbed cairn but the kerbstones are not set lenghtways as on the best examples of the type on Vatersay, rather they are either set into the mound on their long axis or are small squarish blocks.
