ShoreUPDATE

The mound is generally well vegetated, a short section of structural walling is visible in the coast edge on its south side, the remainder of the coastal side of the mound appears stable. The interior of the mound has been damaged, possibly by stone robbing. A post-medieval sheep pen has been constructed on top of the mound, probably built of the stones from the structure. The site is fenced off so not currently at risk from stock erosion.
