What is recorded here

The following description of the monument has been published by Bergh (1995, 233): ‘SW of the cairn [SL014-231----], at a distance of c. 5m from the kerb there are two parallel rows of gneiss boulders, three in each row, placed radially to the cairn. The boulders have a size of c. 0.4m and are set at intervals of 1.5m. The rows are at a distance of 3m from each other and are directed in NE/SW. The outermost pair of stones are set into the bank which is connected to the low platform S of the cairn. The bank curves and ends immediately W of the rows.’ (Bergh 1995, 233; Fig. 31, 235).
