The ring-barrow is not depicted on historic OSi maps but is faintly visible on OSi orthoimage taken 2005-12. Identified by Bruff aerial photographic survey in 1986 (Bruff 23702; AP 4/3634) as a circular ring-barrow (ext. diam. c. 6.5m). Visible on Google Earth orthoimage taken 25/03/2017, the vegetation cover was more dense on the most recent Google Earth orthoimage taken 28/06/2018.
