5 or 6 small cairns around it. The

[Sketch inserted]

circle measures about 31' x 35'
with entrance from SE [South East]
of indefinite dimensions and
a bank about 5' in thickness.
Within the interior
is a smaller enclosure with an interior diameter
of 13' x 14' & into which the entrance opens, formed by a bank or wall 3' thick curving across from side to side. The position
of the entrance to the back part of the enclosure
is not apparent. In the wall adjoining the
position of the main entrance are two large upright
stones conspicuous from the lower slope of the
hill but though they are set with their broad faces
across the direction of the enclosing bank the space
between them seems to have been built up.

Some 600 yds. [yards] NNW. [North North West] of the farm house on the E [East] side
of the road across the moor to Ben Armine is a
small group of cairns larger and more
conspicuous than usual. One nearest to the
road has a diameter of 24' and height of about
3', another 30' N. [North] 29' diameter and height 3'6" - 4'.
On the top of it is a depression of about 8" and
6' diameter. About 100 yds. [yards] E. [East] of the road
is a long low cairn about 3' high with
its longest axis NNE and SSW. [North North East and South South West] 39' in length
