Summary

A possible mound of unknown date, perhaps representing the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a 2015 lidar survey, and possibly also on aerial photographs. It is one of several mounds identified in the vicinity, which together form a possible barrow cemetery (NHER 63330). As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is likely that the earthwork still survives.
