Directions:
A short distance north along the B842 from the Glenlussa Lodge standing stone.

I viewed the site from the road, which is a field of long grass. I could see no sign of this chambered cairn. It has either now been reduced to nothing or so little remains it is hidden by the long grass. I was too wet and tired to go trapsing about in the long wet grass to go looking for any remains - lightweight that I am!

Canmore states that in 1960 it was about 24.5m in length and 1.5m in height. It is certainly not that big now.
