On the same ridge [as Carn Mor, Clachan] but higher up and to the NE, 1/3rd of a mile N of Clachan, is an immense conical cairn conspicuous all round. It is at least 125ft in diameter and 25ft to 30ft high, but its situation on the crest of the limestone ridge makes the definition of its boundary and base impossible. Though the mound is grass-grown, irregular fragments of limestone, some of quite large size, project through the turf everywhere without any suggestion of building. A depression runs up the SW side that suggests either a robber’s trench or the line of a passage and chamber .
