Located 14 September 1983. Field survey.
The site of the burial as described is a very low rectangular mound, now behind sheds and used until recently as a pig pen, but apparently undisturbed. The small box-like hipped roof house has no external trace of antiquity and the barn is shown as roofless or under construction on 1957 unrevised 6" OS.
