Full Description

NH63NW 27 6293 3600.

At NH 6293 3600 on a false crest overlooking a settlement (NH63NW 25) and cairn (NH63NW 18) are the remains of a cairn, entirely overgrown with whins, which was discovered by Mr. O'Malley, GC Division, Ordnance Survey (W O'Mally, OS field surveyor, Inverness). Little cairn material can be seen, but in the NW arc is a semi-circle of seven kerb-stones set on edge, 0.7m maximum height, indicating a diameter of 5.2m. Two or three stones lying prone outside the cairn are probably displaced kerb-stones.
Surveyed at 1/10,000.
Visited by OS (N K B) 11 September 1970.
