A damaged burial mound at this location has been interpreted as an Early Medieval Viking burial site. 


The flat topped, bramble covered barrow measures 17.0 metres from northwest to southeast and is 2.0 metres high to the northwest side. The southwest half of the mound has been destroyed by a post-medieval farm lane which has cut through the monument. By its topographical situation and size Megaw considered it to be a probable Viking Burial Mound.


Neolithic Ronaldsway type pottery has been found in the mound, but interpreted as having been "probably scooped up into the mound, and of no significance for classification of the mound."  Nevertheless, it is possible that the mound represents a prehistoric funerary monument.
