What is recorded here

In pasture, on the S side of a low ridge. Raised oval area (32.5m E–W; 27.5m N–S; H 1.5-2m) with a gently domed profile and broadly sloping sides. Stones protrude from the sod on the slope on the E side. According to local information, it was used as a burial ground (SL023-005002-). A field boundary, on a roughly N–S axis, lies immediately to E, a field drain skirts around the enclosure SE-NW, and there is a road, on an E–W axis immediately to N.
