A number of small cairns of stones (22 shown on OS 1st edition 6"). There is no local information as to their purpose.

No trace of these alleged cairns in dense afforestation. They were probably stone clearance heaps.

This group of cairns is probably that noted by the OS in 1872; the area is now covered by dense forest.
