OS 1:10,000 map, (1976)
The remains of this cairn, measuring about 9m in diameter, are situated on the central one of the three rock ridges of Rubha na h-Airde, though it is not on the highest point of that ridge. It has been robbed, but many of the kerb-stones remain, although some are now recumbent. At the centre, a single upright slab (1m broad by 0.8m high) may have formed one side of a cist, but if so the other slabs have been removed.
Surveyed at 1:10,000.
