Visible as a subcircular feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M, 679-80), and situated on a low knoll. This is a circular domed, grass-covered area (diam. 60m N-S; 55.7m E-W) defined by a stone spread (Wth 3-4m; int. H 0.3-0.4m; ext. H 0.4-1m) with facing stones visible at W (original Wth 2.25m), which is replaced by a field wall NW-NNE. This is separated by a berm (Wth 1-3m) from a second stone spread (Wth 4-5m; H 0.3-0.4m) visible at N, NE and SSE-WNW, beyond which is a berm (Wth 1.2-2m) and a third stone spread (Wth 2.8m; H 0.1-0.4m) WSW-NW. There are some boulders in the interior, and a childrens' burial ground (RO008C020001-) is at the centre. There is no visible entrance but the monument is bisected by a NNE-SSW field wall, and a probable limekiln, visible as an oval area (int. dims 6.2m E-W; 2m N-S) defined by a stone spread (Wth 3-4m; H 0.2-0.7m), is inside the perimeter at WNW.
