The National Monuments Service's description
On a W-facing slope in pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a low subcircular mound of earth and stone (c. 18m E-W; c. 16m N-S; H. c. 1m). There was no trace of an encircling bank or fosse. The mound has since been levelled and its site is marked by an irregular rise.
