These features were not located, though the locations given overlap the N end of an extensive area of clearance cairns, none of which show significant features (see NX59SE 24). On reflection, Mr Ansell (Rannoch, Gatehill Rd, Dalry) suggests these cairns were just disturbed clearance examples, and is uncertain of their exact location.
