Four cairns are shown on the 1869 1:2500 scale Ordnance Survey map in this vicinity but this is one of two which still survive today. This example is a low, indistinct mound, with no stones are exposed on its surface. It is virtually ploughed out.


Kermode noted that an urn was found in one of the four cairns marked by the Ordnance Survey here. This may well be the same urn as was reported to B.R.S. Megaw in 1950 by the finder, who related that they had found and reburied the urn in 1916 (see PRN 1720.00).
