Cairn and wall
A 25m length of stone walling sits on a natural terrace in a north facing slope. Oriented west-east this wall appears to be very carefully constructed in places though it has many gaps. Immediately to the north is a small cairn, which h as been partially overgrown by turf. To the south is a second, more modern cairn that sits on top of the modern ground surface.
