Full Description

NF 81107 64175
Grass covered stony mound, 21m x 22.5m, close to fence on slighly sout-facing aspect of low hill summit, with clear views on most sides. Probably natural. Suggestions of a slight ditch around northern quadrant of mound. Outcropping boulders along south-east side may be natural. A NE-SW water pipe trench has dissected the mound, causing upcast of large flat stones foum the mound interior.
