Full Description

Sub-circular flat topped grassy mound, some stone visible above ground, irregular grassy surface would indicate more below. Small attached turf bank enclosure to west. Located in a pass near a cliff face. Large boundary turf dyke runs along the pass from the west and terminates adjacent to these features. The dyke section next to the features has a larger stone component suggesting being taken from the mound site. Possible Roundhouse, but may represent a later type of dwelling.
