The National Monuments Service's description
On a very gentle N-facing slope in improved pasture. One of four closely associated sites (KD017-013----, KD017-014----, KD017-015----) described in 1957 as 'four ancient cooking sites' which had been ploughed out during land reclamation (SMR file). The monument survives as a low, grass-covered, oval mound (diams. 7m E-W; 5m N-S; H 0.5m).
