Full Description

Probable marker cairn centred on a larger boulder, the leeside of which is earth fast and the westside exposed stone. Smaller stones are scattered around the based of the exposed boulder. It was notible that the stones on the eastside (in the grass) were arranged in a sub circlular form. This could be the base of the cairn; or potentail hint at a more complex feature prehaps a cist.
