First interpreted as a cairn in 1973 by the Ordnance Survey and then reinterpreted by Henshall and the OS as a ruinous domestic structure in 1981, the purpose and date of this grass-grown mound, which measures about 10m in diameter and up to 1m in height, is not known. The mound has been truncated by the plough and dug into along its W side, and three edge-set slabs which are visible may represent the remains of a chamber measuring roughly 0.6m by 1.3m.
