Not located. Visited by OS (R D) 10 November 1965

At ND 1810 6090, prominently situated in SW angle of a field on a gentle SW-facing slope is a long cairn, reduced and mutilated, and its southerly extent truncated by sunken course of old track. The turf-covered remains now measure 41m NE-SW along main axis, and maintain an average height of 0.5m throughout their entirety. The width is problematic but is estimated at 13m in SW increasing to 16m at higher NE end. No stonework suggestive of a chamber was noted. A later field bank flanks NW base of cairn and turns at right angles across NE end.
Surveyed at 1:2500. Visited by OS (J M) 29 October 1981
