Description
One of three or four barrows arranged as a linear cemetery (see Nprn300421), this was a mound c.65' in diameter and 6' high, with a central depression 16' in diameter.
Excavation in 1946 revealed a pallisade 52-3' in diameter, with a near central urn cremation in a slab-lined pit. Three secondary urn cremations were also found, two within cists, the other accompanied by a pigmy cup.
Reported as built upon, with no trace remaining.
