NS 891 339. The remains of a what has been a substantial cairn occupy the level summit of Whiteside Hill (346m OD). It now appears as a grass-covered stony mound measuring 18m in diameter and 0.6m in height. About 14m to the S are two circular grassy mounds, each measuring 3.4m in diameter and 0.3m in height. They are very similar to the mound at Broughton Knowe, Peebleshire (NT03NE 15 qv), excavated in 1962, and they may be burial-mounds of the same type.
