Full Description
Kerb cairn, the easternmost of a group of three (with NJ63NE0016, NJ63NE0017) . Massive and spectacular kerbstones of white quartz stand proud of a very low interior platform and two flat slabs (not of quartz) lie in the centre of the cairn. About eight of the kerb stones are in situ. The others lie displaced around the perimeter and interior. The north arc has been destroyed.
