Leskernick area - Possible Kerbed Cairn on The Beacon - 3.4.2003

Whilst walking down from The Beacon, back to Westmoorgate along the field wall, I came across what looks like the remains of a kerbed cairn between the summit and a small craggy outcrop. It has a classic round shape with hollowed top, plus 3 recumbent stones around the edge near the field wall (two stones are large and one medium sized)
