What is recorded here
At the S edge of a low rise in level pasture. Indicated as an oval shaded area (c. 15m E-W; c. 10m N-S) on the 1837 OS 6-inch map and on the 1913 edition as a small rectangular structure (c. 5m N-S; c. 2m E-W) enclosed within a polygonal area (c. 13m ESE-WNW; c. 8m NNE-SSW). Roughly oblong or subrectangular raised area (12.2m NW-SE; 9m NE-SW) which appears to be revetted with a kerb of stones. On top of the mound there are ephemeral remains of a roughly circular area (diam. 3m) defined by what appears to be a low bank or kerb of sod-covered stones. At the NW end, the top of the mound is level but there is a slight slope down at the SW end.
