The National Monuments Service's description
On a low NE-SW ridge, in tillage. An unenclosed overgrown, rectangular area (20m NW-SE; 10m NE-SW) is densely covered with hazel, boultry and thorn bushes, with a good deal of dead and decaying vegetation underfoot. A plain headstone noted in 1986 (SMR file) is no longer visible, but is probably obscured by the very dense overgrowth.
