This cairn, which is situated in a commanding position with a fine outlook in all directions, measures 12.5m in diameter and up to 1.4m high. It is distinguished by a well-preserved kerb of large boulders, but it is capped by a later marker cairn and its NE edge has been disfigured by a rubble-built sheep shelter. The cairn is shown on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Shetland 1882 and 1903, Sheet xlvi).
