The National Monuments Service's description
In rough rush-covered pasture, on a W-facing slope with views restricted by trees. A horseshoe-shaped mound (8.5m N-S; 8m E-W; H 0.3m) of burnt material protrudes above the surface of the shallow bog. The opening faces W. The surface of the mound is poached by cattle, exposing burnt material. A rath (KE058-160----) lies c. 40m to the W.
