This is the southern most of two kerbed cairns on this stretch of road. Several rocks pierce its mound, although they may just be field rubble piled in top. The area is quite serene. Unfortunately the mound is on the wrong side of a substantial ditch and barbed wire fence.

The mound of this has now been severely reduced due to the trampling feet of sheep in the field. The kerb is more visible now, because of this, but I am not sure how long this will remain a mound. If the same deterioration happens over the next year there will just be the kerb left.
From the N81 take the R759 towards Kilbride and follow the sign's for The Sally Gap. After about 3/4 mile take a right hand turn and follow the road. The barrow and cairns are on the left hand side of the road.
