Details A turf-covered cairn of earth and stone occupies a prominent position on the southeast flank of a rounded hill. A substantial portion of the mound is probably natural. Its height varies from 1.5m on uphill side to 4m on the downhill side. It is slightly quarried on the south. What appears to be a turf-covered tail is part of the underlying natural mound. Although the cairn shows no signs of excavation, former residents of the area say that a cist was found several years ago (pre 1970) but didn't know of any finds. No knowledge of beaker at Huntly (see NJ44SW0004).
