Situated on gently sloping east facing ground fairly high up and some 100m to the south west of the modern cottage of Minn. The location is sheltered and there is a stream c.40m to the south but the land is the least rich of the area and is somewhat waterlogged. The mound is crescent shaped, with horns extending eastwards, and is c.13.5m long, c.11m wide, and attains a maximum height of c.2.5m on its eastern (downslope) side. There are several earthfast stones within the crescent which may be evidence of a structure. [...] |

Located c.200m south along the coast from Sunnybank on a sheltered flat piece of ground about 25m from Long Sound. A small stream runs past the mound on its southern side. Parry describes the mound as being large in size and crescent shaped but there is neither a plan or dimensions in his surviving manuscript. [...] |

There are several interesting features outside the enclosure ( ?HU33NE 23). About 12m to the west is a shallow bank of earth and stones which runs south east-north west for a distance of c.5m before merging with a mound of earth and stones c.5m in diameter and c.0.6m high. c.26m north east of these and c.10m from the enclosure wall is a crescent shaped mound with horns to the south west which measures c.5 by 4m; this appears to consist at least partly of burnt stone. On a craggy outcrop c.50m north east of the enclosure there is a circle of orthostats c.7 to 18m in diameter which may have been a small enclosure. [...] |
