Located on a gentle S-facing slope on the demesne of Drumrahan and c. 200m NW of the house. This feature is indicated as a small circular feature on the 1835 and 1945 editions of the OS 6-inch map. It is an overgrown circular area (int. diam. 7.5m E-W; 7m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.1m; int. H 0.45m; ext.
