Turn east from the A97 just before Kildrummy Castle on the minor road to St. Bride's Church. The cairn is next to road on the western side and is easily spotted thanks to tree that sits on top. Only one kerb remains in place whilst others are scattered. Rabbits and the tree make sure erosion occurs.

At one time the locals looked after the cairn, however the fence that once surrounded it has collapsed. The local church is at the end of the road and is worth a look.
