The National Monuments Service's description
In marshy pasture, on a N-facing slope. Circular mound (diam. 5.1m) enclosed by a shallow fosse (Wth 2.8m) with an external earthen bank (Wth 4.4m). During ploughing in the early 1960s the top of the mound, which is very uneven, was removed and subsequentially reconstituted.
