A mound which was described by P.M.C. Kermode in 1916 as 'A large mound on the top of the hill above Mount Murray and overlooking Douglas Bay is recent, and was erected about 1812, by Sir Wadsworth Busk, Attorney-General, to commemorate the recovery of King George III from illness."


Modern survey work has concluded that the mound is in fact a Bronze Age bowl barrow, which survives as a grass-covered, ditchless mound, with a diameter of 14.0 metres and up to 1.7 metres high.  It is slightly mutilated with minor hollows.
