Full Description
Kerb cairn, the westernmost of a group of three (with NJ63NE0003, NJ63NE0016). It is visible as a turf-covered mound. Only two kerbstones are of pure quartz, the others are hidden or of different stones. The cairn platform is higher and more substantial than those of other two. Only two kerb stones in the southwest and two in the northeast are in situ. The others lie displaced around the northeast edge. Ploughing touches the south arc.
