Field Visit (13 April 1994)
This burnt mound is situated between two small rock outcrops on the N side of an unnamed burn draining the E flank of Kenlum Hill. It measures 5.5m in diameter and 0.4m in height, with a depression in the centre and a slight indentation on the SE side of the mound. Lifting a sod revealed cracked stone set in a matrix of black soil.
