The National Monuments Service's description
At the N end of a N-S esker ridge, and on the E side of a N-S lane but with no houses in the vicinity. This is a drystone-wall construction (int. diam. 1.5m; max. H 0.8m) set into the hillside and open to the W but it is now roofless and the doorway does not survive.
