120m WSW of a large cairn on Carscreugh Fell (NX26SW 4) immediately to the E of the W branch of a small stream, is a slightly crescentic mound, up to 1m in height and measuring 10m E-W by 8m N-S. Differential vegetation makes the mound clearly visible from a distance, and at its W end where it is cut by the stream, it can be seen to contain small shattered stones.
