Situated on the edge of a low ridge on the E side of Gleann Beag, and 750m S of Rhiedorrach, there are the remains of a robbed cairn. It measures up to about 13.3m in diameter but much of the cairn material has been displaced to its E side. Fragments of a boulder kerb are visible on the SW and NE, and immediately N of the present centre are the remains of a cist. It was aligned roughly NE-SW and the NW and NE sides survive to provide minimum measurements of 0.75m by about 0.5m and 0.3m deep. Two slabs which lie to the NW of the cist may have been capping stones or they may be displaced side-slabs. The W side of the cairn is partially overlain by a later rectangular structure.
