The National Monuments Service's description
In damp, rush-grown pasture, located on the N bank of a stream.
A low, grass-covered roughly circular mound (diam. c. 6m) composed of small angular stones in dark soil. The mound appears to have been partly levelled or disturbed in the past. Slight ridging is evident across the top of the mound and the SE side is straight, defined by a slight scarp.
