Full Description
Remains of a long cairn, trapezoidal in plan, measuring 35m in length, 20m across at its east end and 12m wide at its west end. The middle sections stand up to 0.6m, and the rim of the edges stand to about 0.8m. It was originally thought (from aerial photographs) to have been an enclosure but later identified as the remains of a long cairn. Robbing has reduced it to a rim of cairn material. To the east of the cairn there are several piles of stones, but they appear to be recent.
