A drystone cairn was recorded here during a detailed archaeological survey of Strathmashie Community Forest near Laggan, Highland. The survey was carried out to assess the evidence for past human use and to ascertain whether there was enough archaeology to develop a heritage trail in the forest. The cairn is constructed mainly of large flat stones. It measures 0.5m x 0.5m at its base and tapers to a height of 1m.
