Threequarter Wall Cairn is 20 metres in diameter and stands 0.7 metres high, making it one of the larger burial cairns on Lundy. A stone kerb is visible on the south-west and south-east sides. A hollow in the centre of the mound may be the result of an excavation or robbed cists. The cairn is larger and more elaborately constructed that other examples on Lundy. It is a kerbed cairn and survives well despite having been disturbed in the past.
