Situated in the grounds of the Poor Clare convent (formerly Claremont Institution). Comprises a round-topped mound with steep sides (H 4m; diam. 15m). Views from the top are of an extensive low-lying plain, which today is occupied by housing estates. Overgrown with thorns and sycamores. The W and NW sides have been damaged.
