Situated in a low-lying area between drumlins with a canalised NE-SW stream c. 60m to the SE. It is depicted on the 1834 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map as an oval wooded feature. This is an oval grass-covered cairn (dims c. 20m NE-SW; c. 15m NW-SE; H 3m at S) surrounded by an earthen bank (Wth c. 2m; H c. 0.5m) planted with trees. It may be a tree-ring on a natural knoll.
