This is only one of a handful of this type of monument that are located very near to a stonbe circle. It is well preserved - it's horseshoe-shaped mound is very clear.

Around the top edge of the bank there is a line of small boulders. The nearby sign doesn't say if these are original or if they have been added to better define the line of the bank.
