The National Monuments Service's description
Within an enclosure (MA093-015002-).
The remains consist of a low, roughly rectangular rise (13m NNW–SSE; c. 8-10m ENE–WSW; H 0.4m) with an uneven, hummocky surface. It is scattered with low, sod-covered stones, probably gravemarkers. A sandpit, now disused, lies immediately to N.
