What is recorded here

Not listed in either the SMR (1989) or the RMP (1995). In rolling pasture, on an E-facing slope. An oval partially grass-covered cairn (5.6m N-S; 4.1m E-W; H 1.4m) of medium-sized limestone stones. According to local information, the cairn was used as a Mass-rock in penal times. It is likely that this dates to the post-1700 AD period.
