Situated in wet marshy field in upland area with stream immediately to the S, field has recently been planted with conifer trees. Possible two stone row (TN039-052) and wedge tomb (TN039-009) to NW. During the planting of trees in this field a drainage ditch (Wth 0.70m; D 0.40m) was cut through the middle of the mound on an E-W axis revealing the burnt material of the monument. The monument consists of a large circular mound (diam. 16m N-S ; 20m E-W; H 1m) of burnt material with stream immediately to S of mound. No visible sign of any trough.
