A visit to this bowl-shaped mound during the course of the Orkney Barrows Project noted much charcoal in the soil around the mound, which may be a prodict of the site's use as a beacon.
The mound measures 10.0m by 11.5m and is 0.6m in height. It is very prominent on the skyline and is visble for c.2km to the SW and SE.
