NG20NW 72 centred 2320 0594

Four mounds, a narrow subrectangular structure and a small circular enclosure are scattered across a boggy terrace between two burn gullies to the NE of Cnoc Rugail. The mounds are similar in size ranging from 4.4m by 3.9m to 5.5m by 4.5m, and while several large stones protrude from two, another has a slightly dished interior.
The narrow structure (NG 2316 0602), which is the northernmost of these features, is defined by two parallel rows of stones set on edge and measures 6.2m from ENE to WSW by 1.1m internally.
The enclosure (NG 2317 0600) lies 17m to the S of this structure, at the head of a slope, and measures 4.5m in diameter within a low stony bank spread up to 1m in thickness.
