This ring-cairn is situated immediately E of the recumbent stone circle NO79SE 2; it measures about 10m in diameter over all by a maximum of 1.1m in height, although the upper 0.5m of cairn material at the centre may be upcast from excavations in the interior. The interior is roughly oval, measuring 2.6m from E to W by 2.1m transversely, and thirteen stones of the inner kerb remain in situ, the only gaps occurring on the WNW and S. Although the kerbstones do not appear to be regularly graded in height, the tallest (0.8m) occurs on the SSW, and the shortest (0.4m) on the NE.
