This impressive burnt mound is situated 400m SSE of Tofts (HY33SE) and about 100m S of the Burn of Tofts; crescentic on plan, with the open end to the W, the mound measures about 21m from NW to SE and 18m transversely and stands to a maximum height of 2.3m. It was partly excavated by Grant, who revealed a rectangular stone setting (1.5m by 1.2m), which is still visible.
