On E-facing slope, overlooking narrow valley of Fermoyle River. Arc, formed by low rise NNE->WSW, clearly visible due to differential growth pattern in rough grazing land. Later visit to site when field ploughed showed concentration of stones on surface of low rise. Interior slopes down to E. Concentration of stones noted outside levelled bank to E and WSW (c. 2m x c. 2m).
