(i) A grassy mound is situated in rough grassland between marshy ground and the coast edge. It measures approximately 7m in diameter and stands up to 1m high; it lies 10m from the coast edge. There are occasional stones protruding through the turf on the sides of the mound, while the top of the mound is pitted. Since there are no exposures it is not clear what the mound is composed of, but it may possibly be a burnt mound.
(ii) A concentration of earthfast slabs define an enclosure, possibly a noost, which measures 4.4m by 9m. It lies immediately adjacent to the coast edge. The stones are covered in lichen and appear to have been exposed to the elements for a long period of time.
