Less than 100 metres and over a fence to the east of the wedge tomb is this robbed out cairn. Lough Skale to the north is even more prominent from this on slightly higher ground than the wedgie. The ruins are still pretty well defined, 13 metres in diameter and about a metre tall. The western arc is better preserved. There was once another cairn between this and the wedge tomb but there are no traces of it left.
