Originally a circular low mound 8.4m in diameter. When excavated in 1914 and again in 1936 a capstoned cist was found under a mound of fine clay within a stone circle. In the cist were two urns resting on a bed of charcoal. The larger of these contained cremated human remains thought to be that of a woman and child. The cist was removed for safe keeping and can now be seen at the museum at La Hougue Bie as can the large urn. The small urn can be seen in Jersey Museum. |
