Monument record MHG28689 - Burnt Mound, Cnoc Sheagan

ND13SE 106 1644 3320

This burnt mound is situated on the W side of a drain some 40m NNE of the burnt mound ND13SE 48. The size and shape of the mound are obscured by a spread of upcast, but a layer of burnt mound material 0.4m in thickness has been exposed in the side of the drain for a distance of at least 7m. On the opposite side of the drain there is a group of large stones, some of which appear to have been set upright, although others are in natural positions. They perhaps indicate the remains of a small rectangular structure, the orthostatic wall forming the N side incorporating a slab at the NW corner measuring 0.6m by 0.15m and 0.9m in height.
