Notes
HER quoting Gerrard: SX56729035 Southernmost cairn forming part of a cairnfield of at least 64 mounds. Sub-circular in shape, 4.5m in diam and up to 0.7m high (mpp).Newman: There is no ground evidence in the area described by the grid reference to suggest the presence of a cairn. The cairnfield described in 1994 (1393516) commences some 300m to the north. Suspect grid reference.
