The main part of this site consists of a 10-12m high mound at the north, covered in pottery. To the south west, the lower slopes of the mound have a modern cemetery built on them and the south-east area of the site is dug out and flattened. A section cut out of the north-western side shows limestone blocks and remains of walls made of mud bricks. There are also some fragments of red granite on the mound and a noticeable amount of glass is mixed in with the pottery, among which are some fine wares such as African Red Slip. Egypt Exploration Society Delta Survey no. 398.
