On level ground at the S end of a low spur which projects N and which is defined along its NW and NE sides by two narrow, shallow wet 'gullies', near the centre of a large, disused horse-exercising track. Visible on an aerial photograph (DoD, 1999). A small, slightly raised circular area (diams. 3.7m NNW-SSE; 3.1m NNE-SSW) is defined by a very shallow fosse (Wth 1.6m at WSW-3.4m at ENE; D 0.1-0.2m). Immediately outside, between W and N, lie five shallow, circular depressions (diams. 2.5-3.8m; D 0.1-0.2m) whose function and relationship to the main site is uncertain. (A similar pattern, though represented by different vegetation growth, occurs at a possible ditch barrow (KD022-085----) c. 685m to the SE.) A second, similar site (KD022-073----) lies 13m to the NNW. This is one of a group of six similar, closely associated monuments (KD022-072---- to KD022-077----) on this part of the Little Curragh.
