On a natural platform situated on the south facing hillside to the east of Sron na Smeoraich, at a height of 250m OD is a large grass and bracken covered mound. A revetment of large boulders is visible around the base of the mound. The earth mound contained within the revetment measures 10m in diameter and stands 1.5m high. A number of rabbit burrows in the face of the mound reveal a core consisting of stones and earth.
