An ill-defined, amorphous mound lies 15m from the coast edge. The surface of the mound is uneven and there are several upright stones protruding from the turf. Overall, it measures approximately 25m by 18m and stands up to 1m in height. Up to 5% of the surface of the mound shows signs of rabbit burrowing. At the west end of the mound, a boat-shaped depression is cut into the surface. Measuring 6m in length by 2m wide, this possible noost is 0.3m deep and is lined with slabs. A second hollow which may also be a boat noost, is located on the coast edge nearby.
