Three low mounds and a cairn are situated on a terrace to the NE of Cnoc Rugail. The largest of the mounds measures 9m in diameter and 0.5m in height, while the others, which lie side-by-side 22m to the W, are oval and U-shaped respectively: the former measures 9m from N to S by 5m and 0.5 in height, and the latter 7m from NW to SE by 6.8m, its open end towards the SE.
The cairn, which is probably the remains of a relatively recent marker, is situated at the front of the terrace (NG 2299 0570) and has been reduced to a mound about 2m in diameter and 0.4m in height.
(Canna 697-700).
