See NS3678 : Walton Farm chambered cairn for the main description.

The site of the cairn is well marked by the large upright stone; the chamber itself is just behind that stone.

The background shows the Firth of Clyde, with the Rosneath Peninsula jutting in from the right to a point behind the large stone.
