The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a break in a N-facing slope in wet, upland terrain. A circular depression (diam. 24m N-S; 21m E-W) enclosed by a broad, flat bank (Wth 3.6m; int. H 0.35m; ext. H 0.18m). An old, low, earthen field bank extends N-S through the S half of the site. The interior is very wet and has been badly eroded by cattle. There is a small circular enclosure (diam. 13m) adjoining the NW quadrant. It is enclosed by a very low earthen bank except where it shares the pond barrow's bank.
