In rough boggy pasture, in a NE-SW hollow sheltered by rocky ridges. A roughly rectangular area (15m NE-SW; 7.5m NW-SE) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 0.7m; H 0.6m) from which stones protrude intermittently. Gorse obscures part of the enclosing element and the boggy interior is covered with rushes.
