NS 5284 5556 Possible cairn, Malletsheugh: situated on an angle of an escarpment, at a small gully, on a low rock eminence about 60m north west of Netherplace Road. Very clearly defined, it is 17m in diameter and over 1.5m high. A terrace 1.5m surrounds its base.

About 40m south in the next field, at NS 5284 5552 is a possible cairn base about 16m in diameter, truncated by about a third by field reseeding. Also, there are possible cairn remains at NS 5261 5545, but most of this feature appears to be solid rock.
