The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle N-facing slope in reclaimed pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a raised subcircular area (c. 22m N-S; c. 19m E-W) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone with a shallow external fosse. The original entrance was not recognisable. The monument is not visible at ground level.
