Full Description

Remains of a kerb cairn comprising the middle of a group of three (with NJ63NE0003 and NJ63NE0017). Massive white quartz kerbstones stand proud of a low interior platform. Only two of the kerbstones are in situ (on the southwest) while others are displaced around the perimeter and centre. The north arc has been destroyed and there is ploughing to edge of the south arc.
