On an oval hillock (dims c. 44m N-S; c. 33m E-W; H 1.8-2.5m) rising from a level landscape. Described as a slab resting on some small stones and surrounded by a drystone wall (OS Name Books). A broken slab (dims 1.5m NE-SW; 1.15m NW-SE) surrounded by and partly overlain by a collapsed drystone wall (Wth c. 1m; H 0.3m). The base of the hillock is defined by a gapped earthen bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 1.3m-1.4m) NE-SSE and a scarp (H 1.1m at N to 1.4m at W) elsewhere with a complete fosse (Wth of base 2.3m at N to 4m at W; D 0.2m at E to 1.4m at W), which has been re-cut as a drain SW-NW. Mature deciduous trees grow at the edge of the hill, and one at the summit has a small shrine with a statue. Two possible bullaun stones (RO015-054002-) (Gannon 1972) could not be found. Stations were performed here on Garland Sunday (MacNeill 1962, 631-2).
