NX 573 907. A 6.4m diameter ring cairn with a boulder in its centre.

NX 5728 9070. This feature was identified as a probable disturbed clearance heap. Its centre has been robbed, except for a large naturally embedded boulder, giving the false impression of a constructed rim. The cairn has no independent significance and forms only one of an extensive clearance cairnfield on the W and S slopes of Braidenoch Hill (see NX59SE 18).
