Visit Notes

Sunday, 30th April 2006

The OS map states there are 'barrows' here, but there is only one ... it is massive though! Sadly the mound itself has been taken away leaving a .8m high, 25m diameter circular bank that is lined with trees.

I was hoping to find a good barrow cemetery here, but it has mostly been ploughed away.
