It is near the mouth of the River Endrick, by the abandoned village of Aber, and is 1⁄2 mile (800 metres) from Clairinch.^[1] Its name derives from the Celtic word for the mouth of a river,^[2] or Gaelic eabar meaning "mud, mire".^[3]

There are some trees on it including alders and a collection of Scots pine and Hornbeam.

It is owned as part of Claddoch, north of Gartocharn.^[4]
