On a peninsula on the S side of Inchlonaig, there is a quarry, a small cairn and a mound. The quarry is comprised of a bedrock outcrop on the E side and on the W side, is formed by a row of boulders. Overgrown by bracken, it is difficult to determine whether this is a natural or man to made feature. It measures approximately 5.0m N to S and 1.5m in width.
The cairn, which measures 1.5m in diameter and stands to approximately 0.2m in height, lies to the NW. A tree is growing immediately beside it but does not seem to have caused any apparent damage.
The mound which lies to the W may possibly be the remains of a cairn. It measures approximately 4.0m in diameter and 0.6m in height.
