Full Description

Cropmark of a penannular ring ditch, possibly the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow seen at TR 3573 6474 which is visible on aerial photographs. It measures c.19m across. The northern side is not visible, but this could be due to the faintness of the cropmark. Two further similar penannular ring ditches (these are truncated by tracks) can be seen to the north and west and have a similar appearance. These have been recorded in NRHE 469481. (1)
