Summary

A possible mound, perhaps the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible as an earthwork on visualised lidar imagery from a survey flown in 2015. It forms part of a possible linear barrow cemetery NHER 63628. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is probable that the earthwork still survives.

A possible mound, perhaps the remains of a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible as an earthwork on visualised lidar imagery from a survey flown in 2015 (S1). The earthwork is very low and poorly defined, but is located in an area in which a number of other possible barrows have been identified. It forms part of a possible linear barrow cemetery NHER 63628. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is probable that the earthwork still survives.
