When surveyed in 1929, this site was visible as a slightly hollowed mound, some 30m in diameter. It stood up to 2m high and there were traces of a wall to the NE side. It was located on the margins of cultivated land and was thought to be the remains of a much denuded broch or chambered cairn. By 1973, all that survived was an uneven, roughly circular area of ground, c.20m in diameter and it was thought to have suffered coastal erosion. This site was not located during this survey.
