Diam. 25m-30m. Marked as a single-ringed enclosure on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map. What remains is an inverted saucer-shaped platform, 2m in maximum height. It is not possible to say if this mound is artificial or natural or a combination of both. The souterrain, the existence of which is attested locally, is not visible. The site is on low-lying ground close to Rinclevan Strand. An artificially created 'New Lake' comes almost to the base of the mound on the S. There is good grazing available about the site today.
