On a SW-facing slope, in the SW quadrant of Carron ceremonial enclosure (TS069-002001-). A small ring-barrow (overall diam. 9m N-S; 9.4m E-W) defined by a low central mound (H 0.05-0.15m; diam. 2.3m), fosse (Wth 0.9-1.2m; D 0.05-0.12m) and outer bank (Wth 1.6m; ext. H 0.1m). A larger ring-barrow (TS069-002002-) is located 4.8m to the NE, also within the ceremonial enclosure, and the fosse of the ceremonial enclosure is 9m to the SW.
