Situated on level ground 440m SW of Creagantairbh Beag farmhouse and 20m E of the public road (B840), there are two cairns (Campbell and Sandeman 1964). The N cairn measures 11.5m in diameter by 1.5m in height, and its centre has been disturbed, revealing what is probably the overturned cover slab of a cist. This slab, which measures 1.6m by 1.2m, bears at least nine cupmarks. A slight depression surrounding the cairn may indicate the presence of a ditch. About 3m to the SSW there is a second cairn, measuring 6.6m in diameter by 0.8m in height, and its centre has also been disturbed.
