This group of small cairns, about 900m SSW of Biallaid House, has been bisected by the A86 road. There are about twenty cairns on the SE side of the road, the largest 8m in diameter, scattered along a narrow band measuring about 120m NE-SW by 25m transversely. On the opposite side of the road there are at least twenty more cairns, in a band measuring 150m from NE to SW by 40m transversely.
