Arnsheen S Cairn is a robbed out cairn located in a forestry clearing c. 4 miles SE of Barrhill, in South Ayrshire. The stones quarried from the cairn were used to construct a large sheepfold on the surface of the cairn. Canmore ID 62455 (go to Links) estimates that the original cairn had a diameter measuring c. 30 yards, based on remains of the N and E Arcs. Arnsheen N Cairn, a smaller cairn, is situated c. 30 yards SSW of Arnsheen S Cairn.
