Notes

We have the following which might refer to the same cairn but it is hard to tell. 1)Butler 53.11.3 Piles Hill SW (SX64785963) size 10.0 x 0.4 2) HER MDV13094 (SX64805950) size 7 x 0.25. NOTE. Butler also listed this as being Grinsell Harford 25 (SX64885966) size 12 x 0.3 but that we have listed as another site. This area has very many patches of gorse that look like they could conceal a mound but could just be vegetation. This makes identifying claimed cairns very difficult. The author looked for this cairn on 20/04/2019 and was unable to find it.
