On a slight rise, bordering an expanse of wet pasture to WSW and within a field system (SL047-083004-). A circular steep-sided earthen mound (diam. at base 11.6m; diam. at top 6m). The S portion of the mound is highest (H 1.5m) due to a natural dip in the ground level. The top of the mound is defined by a slight rim and there is a hollow (diam. 3m) in the centre. This mound is located within a rectangular field (30m N-S; 49.5m E-W) defined by a low earthen bank (Wth 2m; H 0.4m). A mound (SL047-083005-) lies c. 400m to NE and a graveyard (SL047-083002-) c. 150m to NE.
