What are probably the remains of a stone circle stand in a field of rough pasture immediately W of the B955 public road and some 200m SE of Whitehillocks farmsteading. The circle comprises five stones with an internal diameter of about 5m, but only one of the stones, which stands about 1m in height, remains erect. The fallen stones measure from 1.5m to 1.8m in length. A low mound of stones between the two northerly stones may be the remains of a cairn, but another at the centre of the site may be nothing more than field clearance.
