Notes

"A low circular turf covered mound measuring 5.0 metres in diameter and standing to a maximum of 0.6 metres high. There is no evidence to suggest the presence of a kerb or cist. Its definite interpretation as a cairn is marred by some small scale tinners diggings immediately to the NW and its unusual position on the slope."
