A short walk north from the Balla Cairns is the cairn at Ben Scrien. It is over 3m wide and is almost 0.75m high. 3 kerbs are visible and more are under the vegetation. In the centre of the site three stones might well be on edge, the remains of the cist perhaps. A good look for a capstone revealed nothing, but it could well grown over.

With that it was a soggy walk back to the car, nothing treacherous, wear wellington boots.
