A large grass-grown mound lies within a field enclosure on the W side of a burn at Garrisdale. Oval on plan, it measures 11.5m from ESE to WNW by 8m, and has five large boulders defining its S side. Traces of two small plots of lazy-bed cultivation (NG20NW 129.02).are still visible within the enclosure, one of them lying immediately to the E of the mound.
