Notes
NGR is 6-digit from HER. This looks like a duplicate entry maybe of W4.1. Are there 4 or 5 of these cairns. The descriptions on the HER suggest 4 but there are 5 records? Duplication is more likely as this is a rare case where the underlying Butler records are a bit confusing. The size of the feature in tis record seems to originate with an accoutn from Gerrard at 3.0 x 0.6 - W4.1 is reported as a small cairn at 3.0 x 0.3 - that is very similiar.References
