For field-system, lazy-beds and small cairns between NG 2371 0556 and NG 2418 0548, see NG20NW 131.02.

A group of grass-grown clearance cairns lies along the seaward side of a broad terrace 350m to the SE of Tarbert farmstead (NJ20NW 26). They measure between 4m and 7m in diameter and up to 0.5m in height, and are probably of relatively recent date. Traces of lazy-beds can be seen amongst the cairns, but on the terrace to the W the lazy-beds have been removed by 19th century improvements (NG20NW 131.02).
