Full Description

Clearance cairn.
Centre of 2m diameter, ground level clearance cairn, comprising large boulders and small cobbles, all surrounded by heather. There are no traces of nearby habitation, so there may be some conjecture as to its origin and purpose. It is 30m to the E of the existing access track and 20m to the W of the old track and not apparently associated with either. <1>
