This is not marked on the OS map, probably because they were running out of space locally! This is right by the road, so close in fact that a row of stones that may have been the facade form the field boundary.
Nearest the road is a very narrow court. Beyond this is a ruined gallery. The cairn is around 25m long and stretches at right angles away from the road. At the far end is a hodge-podge of stones. a wall seems to have been constructed across where the far gallery should be and in front of that is a very disrupted court.
It has a fine boulder kerb down both sides of the cairn. The accessibility of the site makes it of interest and because the field is right next to the farm it seems to be kept in good order, which is always good to see.
