At NC 5945 0742, on a low ridge within a settlement of three huts and associated field system (See NC50NE 24), is a small turf-covered cairn, 4.5m in diameter and 0.5m high. It is contained by a discontinuous kerb of stones on edge. The centre is hollowed, and a single slab protruding through the turf may be the remains of a cist.
Surveyed at 1:2500 and 1:10 000.
