Cairn, Noness Head. What appears to be a second and even more ruinous cairn lies about 350 yds to the SW [of HU47SE 2]. It seems to have been oval and to have measured 43 ft. from N.E. to S.W. by 23 ft. from N.W. to S.E. Near the S. end a setting of small upright stones, which rise about a foot above the turf, may represent the S. half of an oval chamber and the S. side of its entrance-passage. The latter starts at the E. margin and runs westwards for 8 ft. 6 in. The chamber is 11 ft. 6 in. broad, and has a present length of 8 ft. Near its W. side is an upright stone, 1 ft . 8 in. wide, 11 in. thick, and 3 ft. 3 in. high, set in a packing of small stones.
