The National Monuments Service's description
In gently undulating low-lying wet pasture with a ring-barrow (TS065-065006-) abutting the monument on the WSW side and another (TS065-065003-) located c. 70m to the NE. Identified during field survey by Mark Keegan (25/01/2005). Circular area (diam. 4m) enclosed by a scarped edge (Wth 0.7m; H 0.15m) with a shallow fosse (Wth at base 0.6m: D 0.05m) and an external earthen bank (overall Wth 3.2m; Wth at top 1m; ext H 0.15m). The external bank is barely visible SE-NW and is incorporated into the external bank of an almost identical ring-barrow (TS065-065006-) WSW-W. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth.
