There is an isolated cairn on the summit of Pinbreck Hill, located c. 5 miles E of Barr Village in South Ayrshire. The oval cairn measures c. 40 feet NW-SE and 35 feet NE-SW, reaching up to 3 feet high. It has been largely robbed of stones leaving a grassy surface studded with embedded small stones. The kerb of the cairn is delineated by intermittent embedded medium-sized stones. A modern cairn, measuring c. 1.5 feet high, has been constructed in the centre of the mound around a rusting iron fence post. Canmore ID 63060 has further details of Pinbreck Hill Cairn. There are extensive 360° views from the summit of Pinbreck Hill, compensation for a tussocky walk up a c. 30° slope.
