NT65SE 3 6868 5308.
There is a cairn on the summit of Dirrington Little Law (363m OD). It is composed of small quarried stones partly derived from a hollow immediately S of the cairn. This hollow has been further quarried, and the S side of the cairn robbed to obtain material for the boundary wall which passes over the cairn.
