At the depth of about nine or ten feet was a cist formed of thin flagstones, set edgewise, with a larger one on the top, Covering the whole grave. The Cist was four feet two inches long, twenty two inches wide, and two feet deep. There indications of the Cairn having been previously examined, and, as might be expected, the cist was empty. The direction of the grave was due North and South, which seems to indicate its existence anterior to the introduction of Christianity". from "Buchan" by the Revd. [Reverend] John B.
