In rough pasture, overlooking a poorly drained area to the ESE. Identified during field survey by Alison McQueen and Vera Rahilly (9 December 2008). Conjoined to a ditch barrow (TS066-184003-) to the NE and a ditch barrow (TS066-183002-) is located c. 52m to the ENE. A circular area (dims. 4m N-S; 3.5m E-W) defined by a shallow fosse (Wth 1.9m; D 0.11m) accentuated by wild irises and waterlogged in the S quadrant. The interior has a low dome-shaped profile.

Ditch barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age. Its location and association with other ditch barrows suggest a broader ritual or funerary landscape.
