The National Monuments Service's description
One of a group of six (KD019-046----, KD019-048----, KD019-049----, KD019-050----, KD019-054---- and KD019-055----) in a wet, low-lying area. Now levelled, but cracked stone and dark soil are visible in a drainage trench. This is probably the site described in 1955 (SMR file) as horseshoe shaped in plan (diam. 11m; H. 0.5m) and situated near the bank of a stream.
