In gently undulating pastureland. A sub-rectangular area (dims. L 23m NNE-SSW; Wth 11m) is defined along the S and W by a low earthen bank (H 0.8m) and along the N and E by a laneway and road. There is a low, triangular mound (dims. max L 4m; Wth 2m; H. 0.6m) at the centre. There are no visible grave markers. The base of a cross (KD003-015002-) lies inside the enclosing bank at S.
