Full Description

shieling mound, c. 10 x 20m, surface much disturbed, probably by cultivation, certainly by wall construction. Green mound, with stones poking through the surface, and stones along the bottom of the fence line which crosses it. Certainly multi-period, possibly with prehistoric occupation given its proximity to the standing stones on no. 20.
