This 'simple long cairn' recorded by Mercer is considered by Davidson and Henshall to be 'too amorphous for classification but probably natural'.
R J Mercer 1985; J L Davidson and A S Henshall 1991.
This marker cairn is situated on a low rise in heather moorland 580m SSW of South Yarrows farmsteading. It comprises a mound of loose, roughly piled stones measuring 5m in diameter and 0.6m in height.
