NX 2360 6296 On top of a small natural knoll is an asymmetrical (in cross-section) bank, with a maximum diameter of 24m, and less than 0.2m high. The interior is uneven and, although grass-covered, seems to contain a high proportion of stone. This may represent the almost completely robbed out remains of a Bronze Age round cairn (others are known from the surrounding area).
