This cairn sits about 150meters north of Frankinshaw How & just off the track way which leads towards the Grouse Butts. Its not marked on the OS map, so you’ll have to keep an eye for the distinctive mound.
The cairn has diameter of about 8-9m and has 3 known cup marked stones which protrude through the turf covering.
