On a rise in level pastureland. Classified by McCaffrey (1952, 237, no. 39) as a circular ‘Stone fort’ (diam. c. 48.2m) defined by a double-faced drystone wall which had been levelled to its foundations. When inspected in December 1982 the monument has been extensively disturbed by quarrying. On a revisit in October 2001 no visible surface trace of it was evident.
