Marked only on the 1914 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on the E-facing slope of a drumlin against the S face of a field bank. It is c. 75m NE of a farmstead and there is an E-W stream immediately N of the field bank. This is a stone-filled rectangular depression (dims 2.3m N-S; 2m E-W; max.
