Tinnis Hill is around 1 mile N of Windy Edge cairn. When I visited in 2012 I couldn't resist climbing Tinnis Hill. I wasn't looking for a cairn and didn't find one. There was a Trig Point partially surrounded by a modern shelter built with medium sized stones. Looking at the summit photos i took at the time there is a cairn profile on top of the hill spoiled by the modern additions. Grass had covered the summit with the exception of a hollow, c. 3 foot across, with exposed smaller stones on the summit.
Canmore ID 67879 considers Tinnis Hill Cairn to be reduced to 0.3m in height surrounded by an enclosing bank 18m in diameter. Most of Tinnis Hill Cairn may have been used to constuct the ruinous dry stane dyke further down the slope. The Modern Shelter could have accounted for the scatter of stones on top of the hill. Canmore gives Tinnis Hill Cairn's location as NY 4309 8545.
