The site comprises approximately 10 stone cairns built from stone and cement, and some of these cairns have metal pegs associated with them. The cairns are on average 0.6 m high and appears to have been painted white a very long time ago. While the exact function of these markers is not presently clear, it is possible that the original road passed through here and that these cairns were used as road markers to indicate the approaching drift. This possible interpretation is supported by the layout of the markers in that they were found in groups of two’s spaced roughly 15 m apart with the section of land between each set of markers reasonably level, even though it is currently overgrown.
