Notes

Butler Corn Ridge NW2. Northern most of pair of cairns near stone circle. This was previously matched to the southern terminal of the cairn row but it looks likely they are two separate cairns. This being around 5o-60 metres north of the southern one of the pair (site 10) mentioned by Butler. The southern terminal of the cairn row should be another 30 metres or so to the north and is now a seprate entry with photo and accurate grid reference. The grid reference for this record is that originally published by Butler. Field work is required to clarify this actually relates to a real feature and is nota duplicate of the terminal cairn.
