The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a low elevation in otherwise lowlying pasture. Raised roughly circular area (diam c. 17m) defined NE-NW by a scarp (H 0.8m at E, 1.4m at S), and truncated at N by an E-W field wall. Stones protrude from the sod along the top edge of the scarp. There is evidence for a possible souterrain (SL016-001001-) in the W half of the interior.
