Full Description
On a gentle W-facing slope, is a disturbed cairn, overgrown with peat and measuring 9m in diameter. Partially exposed in the centre are the N and S side slabs of a cist, 0.6m apart, which support a capstone, 1m square and 0.1m thick. A displaced stone on E side of the capstone may be the E end-slab of the cist; the W side seems to have been removed.
Surveyed at 1:10,000. Visited by OS (J B) 28 July 1981.
