What is recorded here

On a low rise on a W-facing slope. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 47m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.75-3.75m; int. H 0.1-0.25m; ext. H 0.6-1m) with internal and external facing stones SE-W-ENE, which is reduced to a scarp (H 1-1.2m) elsewhere. There is no visible fosse or entrance, but a grass-covered cairn (RO010-005002-) (diam. 3m; H 0.4m), probably a clearance cairn, is at the centre.
