Ts BC 87 was found on the southeastern slope of the same ridge that hosts Ts BC 84 0.32km to the northwest (bearing 299°), across a small valley from Ts BC 86 to the east (map quad B4j).
This cluster of cromlechs is set on a crescent-shaped slope that rises to an eroded ridgeline running roughly north-south.
While many of the more dispersed burial clusters in the area have been restricted to small or medium-sized cromlechs, this more compact cluster (approximately 75m x 65m) hosts a series of larger cromlechs that range from 6 to 13m in diameter. All are built of medium to large, lightly worked, basalt blocks surrounding flat basalt slab capstones. Standard, paved, and stepped cromlechs were recorded in this cluster. Towards the southern limit of the cluster the burials appear to get smaller, with bedrock and standard cromlechs ranging from 2.5 to 4m in diameter.
No surface materials.
Feature 1: is a large stepped cromlech, 9m in diameter north-south and 13m east-west. Circumscribed within the outermost ring is a second, slightly raised (0.25m) ring surrounding several large capstones which are only partially visible. The inner and outer rings are separated by a 1m bare area now visible only as a ring of sod.
Feature 2: is an unusually elongated stepped cromlech. 9m long but only 5m wide, the outer elliptical ring also circumscribes an inner, raised ring which surrounds the large central capstone slabs. The burial is constructed of large, lightly worked basalt blocks.
