This monument includes twelve cairns, a lynchet, a boundary bank and two field-plots forming part of a cairnfield on a gentle south-west facing slope of Raddick Hill. A length of rubble bank measuring 1.5 metres wide and 0.4 metres high, lying on the southern edge of the monument is a land division boundary, though it is not necessarily contemporary with the cairnfield.
