At NC 5790 0988 situated at the junction of two forestry rides is a small round cairn, covered by thick heather, and measuring 5.5m in diameter and 1.2m high. The centre has been excavated revealing a short cist, orientated E-W, measuring 1.1m long, 0.4m wide and 0.4m deep, but partially filled with dead vegetation. The side slabs are in situ with the end stones slipped slightly from their original positions. The cist appears to be slightly to the SE of centre. No kerb is apparent around the cairn.
Surveyed at 1:2500 and 1:10 000.
