HU 4906 4398. This is a turf-covered mound, 2.2m high, with burnt stones showing in the excavation pit in the north side. In the top of the mound a vague indentation, 1.0m long and 0.4m wide, suggests that this is the position of the 'cist-like structure' mentioned by the RCAHMS. No recent finds have been made here, and the name 'Washy Knowe' is now known locally as 'Washing Knowe'.

Re-surveyed at 1/2500.

Visited by OS (NKB) 7 September 1964.
