The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight E-facing slope in rolling pasture and conjoined to a second slightly smaller ring-barrow (TS058-088001-) to the NNW. Circular area (diam. 8m) defined by an earthen scarp (Wth 0.6m; H 0.1m) with a shallow fosse (Wth at base 0.6m; D 0.05m) and an external earthen bank (overall Wth 2.2m; Wth at top 1m; H 0.1m). The external bank is absent SW-NW where the line of a now removed N-S orientated field boundary abuts the W edge of the barrow. The interior slopes slightly facing E and is clear of overgrowth.
