What is recorded here

Sited immediately S of the highest point of a prominent drumlin hill. Small, circular, flat-topped mound of earth and stone (int. diam. 7.5m NNW-SSE) with the remains of a kerb of low stones about the perimeter of the summit. The mound is enclosed by a narrow, well-defined bank of earth and stone with narrow, deep, internal fosse. The bank has been removed from SW-W probably in relatively modern times. Of the kerbstones, fifteen remain in position; four at SSE and the remaining ten from SW-NNW.
