(NC 3140 0909) A chambered cairn, situated on the same ridge as NC30NW 8, at about 610ft OD. Most of the cairn material has been robbed and only an amorphous outline can be planned. Orthostats defining the passage can be seen and some kerb stones remain.

This is not a chambered cairn but a natural deposit of boulders and living rock situated on sloping ground at the base of a rocky spur. Visited by OS (N K B) 23 June 1980.
