Situated on a gentle S-facing slope a short distance N of the Leaffony River. Raised circular area (diam. 21m N-S) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 3m; H 0.5m) which has been largely levelled at N and E. Original entrance not recognisable. In the centre of the internal area is a low mound which is probably composed of field clearance debris.
