Situated in an area of unimproved ground, now overgrown with gorse and whin, this ring-cairn lies within a field-system of stony banks and small cairns. It has been heavily robbed and its internal court, which measures about 5.5m in diameter, is partly infilled with rubble. Overall the cairn measures 20m from N to S by 18m transversely and no more than 0.5m in height. Fifteen outer kerbstones are visible, most occurring singly, though six lie in pairs and three form a row on the WNW. Ten internal kerbstones define the central court, those on the S exposed at the edge of a robber trench. The majority of the kerbstones, both internally and externally, are of grey granite, and there is little evidence to suggest that they are graded in height.
