Oval-shaped mound (dims. top 2.75 NE-SW; 1.5m NW-SE; dims. base 3.85 NE-SW; 2.1m NW-SE; H 0.15-0.3m) with an external fosse (Wth 4.2m-6.3m; D 0.1m-1.2m). The fosse is deepest at SE due to the steep natural slope. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 21 April 2011

A Neolithic ditch barrow; its construction reflects early funerary practices in upland landscapes. The site's location suggests a deliberate choice for ceremonial or symbolic reasons, though its wider significance remains unclear due to incomplete documentation.
