NC75NW 17 7149 5882.
(NC 7149 5882) Cairn (NR)
OS 6"map, (1964)
A prominent, turf-covered cairn on the summit of a ridge, discovered during field investigation, measures 11m in diameter and 1.2m high, and from its south side, a low mound, 0.5m high, extends for about 9m. Visited by OS (J L D) 2 May 1960.
The cairn is generally as described. The 'mound' extend- ing from the south end is natural, its profile emphasized by run-rig cutting into its edge. A few disturbances within the cairn material reveal nothing. Visited by OS (J B) 8 August 1977.
