Full Description

a hill-top cairn, forming the secondary reuse of stones derived from an underlying structure, of which only the foundations remain. It is not clear whether this underlying structure is the remains of a burial cairn or a building. It consists of an oval stone setting, c. 4m x 2m, oriented north-south, and a circular stone setting immediately to the south, c. 3m in diameter. The more recent cairn overlies and obscures the junction between the stone settings.
