This cairn is situated on the stony N flank of Sgribhis-bheinn, a prominent steep-sided hill (371m OD) some 6km E of Cape Wrath. Measuring about 1.5m in diameter at the base and 1m in height, it comprises a heap of boulders and slabs. The cairn has been built over the E side of a partly grass-and heather-grown spread of boulders measuring about 4m in diameter and 0.5m in height.
