In level pastureland. This subrectangular children's burial ground (17m N-S; 13.5m E-W) is defined by a low bank, which is surrounded by a modern field wall. The bank is obscured by undergrowth and rubble. The interior is very overgrown, however, several lines of set stones indicating graves are visible.
