In rough pasture, on a S-facing slope with views SW to the Paps of Dana. Following drainage works, a scatter of burnt material is visible intermittently over an area (c. 6m N-S; c. 5m E-W) c. 10m E of a stream. Two other burnt spreads (KE060-020----, KE060-020002-) are c. 15m to the W and c. 20m to the N, respectively.
