Notes
HER: Possible prehistoric clearance cairn. Feature is sub-circular in shape, 4.5 metres in diameter standing up to 0.9 metres high on the downslope side and 0.3 metres high on the upslope. Many of the cairns within the group are crest sited, strongly suggesting that many probably contain burials, although the size and shape of some mounds suggests that some may also be associated with stone clearanceReferences
