Description
One of a group of pillow mounds (NPRN 412841), this rectangular mound is surrounded by a rush-filled ditch. It measures 9m (NNW-SSE) by 2.7m with a maximum height of 0.6m. The ditch is slightly embanked but the mound is otherwise unenclosed. The ditch on its east side projects uphill to merge with the west ditch of a neighbouring, mound at its uphill end (412846).
