Full Description
Site of a cairn which was removed circa 1856 to provide road materials. No finds were noted when site was dug over to a 30cm depth. However, a very slight crop mark is visible at this location on a vertical aerial photograph taken in 1977, which could indicate that some features do still survive beneath the ground.
