Also known as Garrywhin.
This ruinous cairn gives a good view of how the nearby Camster Round Cairn may look if stripped of much of its covering.

Although much ruined, the circular passage cairn still stands 3 metres high with impressive orthostats dividing the main chamber from the ante chamber from the entrance passage.
