Low, grass-covered mound (c. 7m WNW–ESE; c. 4.7m NNE-SSW; H 0.4m), roughly kidney-shaped in plan, composed of angular heat-shattered stones and charcoal fragments in black peaty soil. There is adepression, possibly indicating the position of a trough, on the W side of the mound, facing the stream. Largely obscured by long grass and brambles.
