A cairn is situated within an area of small cairns (NX15NW 49) on rough ground 450m N of the abandoned farmhouse at Old Hall and 35m WSW of the S corner of a field of improved pasture. It measures about 11m in diameter by 0.6m in height, but it has been dug into for stone.
The bank of a small enclosure overrides the edge of the cairn on the NNW, and a second bank runs away to the corner of the modern dyke on the E. Both banks appear to have been constructed after the cairn had been quarried for stone.
