Notes
Ring Cairn east of Western Beacon. UPDATE 01/01/2023: there is no HER entry for this ring cairn. It has been renamed in this listing to include "East of" since listing as Western Beacon (as it appears in Turner's list) is confusing. Alt-Name set to cairn 20. Turner gives SX 6556 5769 as the grid reference.References
