What is recorded here

Visible as a feature on aerial photograph (GSIAP: M 652) around the S end of the NW-SE ridge of Fairymount Hill. Oval area (dims c. 180m N-S; c. 90m E-W) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 1.8-3.2m; int. H 0.1-0.2m; ext. H 0.5-1.4m) S-NW and NE-E (Wth 2m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.9m), but it is replaced by a wall (Wth 0.9m; int. H 0.1m) on the outer edge of a rock outcrop face (H 0.45m) N-NE. It has been removed by a water tank NW-N and by a quarry E-S. There is no visible entrance, but old field walls visible as grass-covered stone spreads (Wth 0.8m; H 0.2m) are attached to the perimeter at E and SW. Although the name suggests the presence of a mound (RO014-078002-) there are no internal features visible and there is no record of one. Cairn (RO014-066----) is c. 250m to the NW, and hut site (RO014-068----) is c. 150m to the E. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
