The National Monuments Service's description
During topsoil monitoring in 2003 three unenclosed inhumation burials were discovered including a south-north stone-lined, probably supine burial. Two additional graves, a juvenile at the foot of the main adult burial and a stone-lined west-east juvenile grave were revealed during the subsequent excavation. A provisional date of the 2nd to the 7th century has been proposed for the burials. At least two may be pre-Christian (Frazer, W.2006, 111-112).
