An approximately circular peat mound 33 metres south of the Green Hill cist, resulting from intensive peat cutting on the summit of the hill, which has mistakenly been recorded as a barrow.
National Monuments Record, 2019, Pastscape, 441735, SX66NW60 (Website). SDV362732.
A mound 8.0 metres in diameter and 0.3 metres high was seen by Grinsell on 30th June 1976 who listed it as a doubtful barrow site. In 1994 it was described as a small peaty mound some 30 metres south of the summit cairn on Green Hill. The sub-circular mound measures 7.8 metres north to south by 7.5 metres and is 0.4 metres high. It lies in an area much disturbed by peat cutting and is most likely to be the remains of peat cutting activity.
