In undulating pasture. Rectangular area (19m N-S; 28.7m E-W) defined to N by straight E-W field boundary and to E, S and W by scarped edge (max. H 0.7m) with rounded corners to SE and SW. Mid-way along S scarp are two recumbent slabs (L c. 0.445m; Wth c. 0.25m; H c. 0.35m). Interior is uneven and stony, covered with tall grass and brambles. Just N-of-centre is hollow area (3.15m N-S; 2.7m E-W) lined irregularly by low upright slabs, with concentration of loose stones at N end, and at NE corner upright stone (H 0.46m; Wth 0.35m) with pointed top. Between latter and scarped edge to W is another setting of low slabs roughly-defining rectangular area (c. 1m N-S; c. 0.6m E-W).
Described by Begley (1906, 109-10) as 'may be the place now called Dromagarrum, where unbaptized children are buried. This site may be that referred to by Lewis (1837, 664) as 'remains of a very ancient church (LI018-015001-) ... at Flean'.
