Full Description
NL58SE 50 5696 8445
MY11. This cairn measures 2.5m in diameter with a well-defined kerb of stone laid flat with central cist of vertically-set slabs. This carin appears to have been once covered or set within the peat which has now all but eroded away leaving the stonework proud and in places sliding out of place. Just a small part of the cairn is still intact within the peat.
