There is a scatter of small cairns, which measure up to 4m in diameter and 0.4m in height, situated within relatively recently improved and fenced ground on a SW-facing hillside to the NE of the Torbreck Burn. Larger spreads of vegetation-free stones visible in the area may have been formed during the recent improvements.
