Two kerbed platform cairns, likely dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age, are significant as rare examples of prehistoric funerary or ritual monuments in the landscape of St Mary's. Their kerbing and platform construction suggest ceremonial use and provide insight into early island settlement patterns.
