Full Description
Remains of a turf-covered round cairn, cut by a field wall. The enclosing wall, built by a Mr Shepherd after excavating the cairn in 1860, remains in the east, but has disappeared elsewhere. The cist contained the 'usual black earth'. The cairn is in the early stages of cattle erosion with some stone dumping on the northwest perimeter.
