In pasture, located on top of a hillock, at the break of slope on the SE side. The location provides extensive views over the surrounding undulating terrain; trees block views of Croagh Patrick to W and Nephin Mountain to NW. Another barrow (MA093-038001) is visible on a prominent elevation c. 200m to SSW. When inspected in 1998, this monument consisted of a central circular mound (2.4m N–S; 2.6m E–W; H 0.35m) enclosed by a fosse (Wth 1.2m) with an external bank (Wth 2-2.5m; int. H 0.2-0.3m), with an overall diameter of c. 9m. The outer bank was poorly defined, and graded into the hill slope, and the E side of the barrow was partly dug away. An inspection in March 2017 found that the barrow has been entirely levelled.
