This burial mound was excavated during 1980-81 and found to contain burial cists and cremation burials. It lies just over 200 metres SSE of Crosh Mooar Cairn. 


The mound is shown as a substantial earthwork on the OS 1:2500 of 1869.


Amongst the finds was a food vessel.  This was found inverted over a cremation with a group of grave goods unique in the Isle of Man: these included bone bodkins, a pin and two toggles, a piece of copper from a knife or razor and two clay beads. (Manx Museum Accession No 84-151a). Cordoned sherds associated with a cremation burial were also found.  A unique, pressure-flaked, barbed, but not tanged, arrowhead was found nearby.
