The National Monuments Service's description
On a flat, low-lying landscape. Archaeological testing (07E1135) of a development site during 2007 produced evidence of a number of pits and the slot-trench (diam. 7m; Wth 0.2-0.45m; D 0.1m) of a probable hut-site. It is preserved on a re-designed site. Burnt mound (RO007-101001-) is c. 60m to the SW. (Read 007c; 2010a)
