The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, set into a SW-facing slope, on the N side of a small stream valley. Circular structure (overall diam. c. 3.5-4m) consisting of a shallow circular depression (diam. 2m), cut into the slope to a depth of c. 0.5m, and defined by remnants of a slightly raised rim incorporating a rough, gapped setting of stones. There appears to be a break or opening (Wth 0.4m) at S. Possibly the eroded foundation of a limekiln. There is a structure/another possible limekiln (SL022-025----) c. 40m to SE.
