Notes

Round cairn situated at the head of the valley between shovel down and stonetor hill. Diam 4m, width 1m, depth 0.1m. This cairn lies 0.6m from a leat embankment. A 1m wide and 0.1m deep trench orientated ne-sw cuts through the centre of the mound from side to side. Formerly listed here as a duplicate of HER 58358 but that appears to be a mistake as this cairn is trenched and the other one is not.
