In rough pasture, on a rocky W-facing slope. Relict field walls meander intermittently across the hillside, covering an area c. 1.15km E-W x c. 520m N-S. The walls (T 0.65m; H 0.7m) protrude above the surface of the bog with base stones set at right angles to the line of the wall. The remains of cultivation ridges were noted in this area.
