R J Mercer, NMRS MS/828/19, 1995

A probable cairn in undulating haughland. It is visible as a turf-covered featureless mound, 1.1m high and about 26m NNE-SSW by 22m transversely, which merges imperceptibly with the surrounding ground level. Loose stones grouped at top of mound are possible remains of a fairly recent marker cairn; otherwise no stones are visible.

Cairn (NR) OS 6" map, (1963)

This mound, 22m in diameter and 1.7m high, is featureless except foor a few loose stones on its summit. It closely resembles horned round cairn at N end of Loch Calder (ND06SE 9) prior to its excavation, and its situation, on marshy haughland, is similar; it may well be a chambered cairn.
Visited by OS (J L D) 18 April 1962.

In angle formed by confluence of Olgrimbeg Burn with the River Thurso and about 1/4 mile NE of Leosag farm is a low hillock evidently containing the remains of a broch. It has long been under cultivation and is much spread out. The diameter is about 95ft over all and the maximum height, 6ft. No part of the structure is visible.
