Full Description
NC71NW 12 7217 1552.
At NC 7217 1552 on a low spur in an undulating southfacing hillslope, is a cairn, much obscured by heather and peat. It measures about 9.5m E-W, but the transverse measurement is uncertain due to peat accumulation on the north side. Some large slabs, mostly displaced around the periphery, probably represent the remains of a kerb. The content of rubble stones is clearly evident beneath the heather, but no cist is exposed, the cairn being about 0.3m high at the centre.
Surveyed at 1:10,000.
