(Location cited as NO 7146 9254). Eslie. Several clearance cairns have been noted on a gentle SW-facing slope in an area of bracken and rough grazing at an altitude of about 180m OD. One of the cairns has two or three larger stones protruding from the interior and may be a ring-cairn. There are two smaller mounds on the periphery of the group, while a bank about 1.5m broad and 0.4m high runs close by to the N and parallel to an existing field boundary.
