Notes

Butler: "Possibly associated with the homestead is a small cairn dug into from the north-east side, sited almost on the skyline 200 m to the south". Butler gives location as SX 6515 5913. The item in the photo might be the cairn referred to but the author is uncertain. It is at SX 65146 59125.
