Situated on a slight rise of ground with fairly good views to the N. The monument has been levelled and is not visible at ground level. This possible monument is only marked in pencil on the ASI field copy of the 1912 ed. OS 6-inch map. This possible monument is not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. Uncertain if there ever was an archaeological monument at this location.
