Situated on a S-facing slope of rising ground in a mountainous area with nearby ringfort (TN031-016) to the N. Only the S half of the ring-barrow survives and this consists of a semicircular mound (diam. 12m E-W) enclosed by a fosse (Wth 1.3m) and an external bank (Wth 2.3m) with a causewayed entrance (Wth 2.3m) at S. A field fence bisects the site on an E-W axis. The remainder of the site to the N of the field fence is not visible at ground level.
