What is recorded here

On a bluff on a NE-facing slope and within the ambit of the fields of the deserted settlement (RO006-103007-). Subcircular grass-covered cairn (diam. 5.7m E-W; 4.2m; H 0.7-1m) which originally had a flush exterior (diam. c. 3m), the facing stones of which can be seen W-N. From its structure and its position close to the church (RO006-103001-), it could have supported a wayside cross, although there is no evidence of a cross. Rath (RO006-103009-) is c. 70m to the ESE.
