A ring cairn. The stone ring is 55 feet in diameter, varying in
breadth from 4 to 6 feet and raised 15 to 18 inches above the ground.
A line of rock outcrop bisects the circle 28 feet from the eastern
side. (2)
A cairn 18.0m in diameter and 0.6m high surrounds the natural outcrop. (3)
A cairn with overall diameters of 14.8m by 18.3m built around a
narrow bank of north to south outcropping rock. There has been some
mutilation in the northern quadrant but for the most part there is a
distinct rim around the central area. The rim measures 4.0m wide
overall, the inner face 0.3m high and the outer up to 0.8m high. The
impression is that of a ring cairn (see plan and ground photograph).
