Cocklaw, Westwater 1 NY 298 822 NY28SE 12

A slab-built cist (aligned NE-SW and in which 'a few fragments of calcined bone' were found) was noted in the centre of the cairn at NY 2984 8228, when seen in 1981.

Cocklaw, Westwater 2 NY 298 823 NY28SE 12

The feature at NY 2985 8235 (110m further N) is described as a possible robbed cairn, measuring about 8m in diameter and up to 0.4m in height, and partly covered by a heap of large boulders.

(No mention is made of the feature at NY 2985 8239; it has therefore been dismissed as not an antiquity).
