A possible ring-cairn is situated 20m WNW of ring-cairn NO89SW 9; it is oval, measuring 8.5m from NW to SE by 7.7m transversely and 0.5m in height. Several boulders around the perimeter of the cairn may be kerbstones; there is a hollow 3.4m in diameter at the centre, but no trace of any inner kerb and it may be no more than a robbed round cairn.
