Located in the middle of a housing area.
The cairn consists of three stone circles, or remnants thereof. The outer one, of detached megaliths, is about 75 ft (23 m) in diameter. The second circle is of graded kerbstone sets closely with a diameter of about 42 feet (13 m), and the inner circle is about 26 feet (7.9 m). The cairn is mostly gone and only three or four stones are left.
