The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, located on a gentle W-facing slope, immediately to SW of a cashel (SL018-051002-) in an area of uneven, disturbed ground traversed by remnants of a field sytem (SL018-051009-).
A small, grass-covered subcircular rise (diam. 2.5-3m; H 0.3m) composed of earth and stone. It's function is unclear. It may be an isolated section of the ruined field boundary which lies adjacent and extends to SE, or, it may be a field clearance heap.
