This feature, identified by Colhoun (1949, 116) as a 'multiple-chambered cairn', is a small stone-built structure, subrectangular in outline, measuring 1.8m long (N-S) by c. 1.3m wide. Small upright stones set in the ground define three of its sides. The western side, if it exists, is obscured by dumped stones. The feature is somewhat cist-like in appearance, but there is a doubt about its antiquity. The remains of what appear to be boreholes at the edge of two of the structural stones suggest that they have been quarried in modern times, perhaps by blasting.
