HY55SW 2 5044 5228. (HY 5046 5229) Human Remains & Deer Horns found AD 1849 (NAT). An Orkney-Cromarty-type stalled cairn opened in 1849, probably by Traill, and partially re-excavated by Petrie in 1854.(G Petrie 1859). It has been heavily robbed, and only about 2' of cairn material remains, but it appears to measure about 40' NNW-SSE by 30' transversely, although the edge is very indefinite and partly obscured by later very ruinous constructions. (Information from Thos Traill, Holland). A S Henshall 1963; Name Book 1879. A chambered cairn at HY 5044 5228 (c.20.0m WSW of OS siting symbol) as described and planned by Henshall. Two mounds of uncertain date and purpose, each c.6.0m in diameter and 0.3m high, occur to the NE at distances of c.16.0m and 30.0m respectively. The former has an upright slab in its E arc, the latter an upright slab in its N side together with about 3.0m of an apparent inner wall face in the NW arc. Traces of other indeterminate structures occur in the area. Surveyed at 1/2500. Visited by OS(NKB) 1 July 1970.
