Only two of the three cairns located in this area by the OS (1981) were visible on the date of survey (A or B and C); this may be due to the deep heather covering the ridge on which the cairns lie. The two cairns identified lie about 75m apart; that to the N (ROG95 422, NC 7479 0459), which is situated on the crest of a rise, is oval on plan and measures 5.4m from N to S by 4.8m transversely over a kerb of boulders standing up to 0.6m high. The S cairn (ROG95 421, NC 7476 0452) lies on the edge of a terrace and measures 4m from NW to SE by 3.5m transversely over a ring of boulders up to 0.4m high. The cairns are situated on the W edge of an area of small cairns that forms part of the site recorded as NC 70SW 42.
